If you’re looking for bright spots on this lost Broncos season, there may be one in the middle of the defense.
D.J. Williams is finishing the season well. Williams is second in the NFL in tackles with 133. While detractors will say that middle linebackers do get a lot of tackles, Williams has done a better job of getting tackles than 30 other middle linebackers in the NFL. he only middle linebacker with more stops is San Francisco rookie Patrick Willis who leads the NFL in tackles with 162.
The point is, Williams has done a good job especially late in the season. Williams admitted he was a little off in his move from the outside to the middle after he replaced former captain Al Wilson. But Williams has gotten better.
With that said, it still wouldn’t be a surprise if Williams moved to the weak side next year if Ian Gold is not brought back.
