The Seahawks acquired Williams from the Giants in October 2023 in exchange for a 2024 second-round draft pick and a 2025 fifth-round draft pick.

The Giants turned those draft picks into safety Tyler Nubin (No. 47 overall) and offensive lineman Marcus Mbow (No. 154).

Big Blue acquired Williams from the Jets in 2019 exchange for third- and fifth-round picks (safety Ashtyn Davis and cornerback Michael Carter).

Williams, 32, appears to be on a Hall of Fame trajectory since departing New York.
