OT Daryl Williams
Williams’ night will mostly be remembered for the strip-sack he gave up on his first snap. It was certainly a bad look, but Williams has played right tackle for nearly his entire football life. The adjustment from right to left tackle is challenging. The movement, nuances and power required are different.
Williams actually rebounded nicely when he slid back over to the right. Here he displays a smooth kick slide and anchors well to prevent the defender from pressuring the quarterback:
Williams is again lined up at right tackle. The edge rusher delays his blitz. Williams assists the guard with a punch to the defensive tackle. He then transitions to his edge assignment and prevents the defender from sacking the quarterback or deflecting the pass:
Despite the positive reps Williams showed in pass sets at right tackle, he was inconsistent on run downs. Here he’s slow to pull and get his hands on the defensive tackle. The result was a common theme for the running game as a whole:
Three isolated clips from a game I didn’t watch because, c’mon it’s preseason. But if he keeps doing that, I’ll stop saying bad things about him. After all, he did inspire me to donate my ponytail to Locks of Love.
Thanks for the breakdown.
Love the video breakdowns, keep em coming.
