The Seattle Seahawks have reached a three-year, $90 million contract extension with three-time Pro Bowl defensive tackle Leonard Williams, according to an AP source. The deal includes $56 million in guaranteed money. The 32-year-old Williams, who was a second-team AP All-Pro last season, helped the Seahawks secure their second Super Bowl title.
He has 22 sacks in 2.5 seasons with Seattle and a career total of 61.5 sacks across 11 years, playing for the Seahawks, Giants, and Jets. Williams signed a three-year, $64.5 million deal with the Seahawks in 2024 following his trade from the Giants in October 2023. He was slated to become a free agent in 2027. During training camp, Williams expressed his excitement about joining the Seahawks, stating that it reignited his passion for the game.
He credited coach Mike Macdonald's leadership for inspiring him, particularly after Macdonald's hiring at the beginning of Williams' first contract year with the Seahawks.
