After sitting on the bench for 97% of the defensive snaps against the Las Vegas Raiders, Kansas City Chiefs rookie CB Joshua Williams was called into action in the game’s biggest moment.
Rashad Fenton went out of the game due to cramping on the final two defensive snaps and Williams came in. On Las Vegas’ last-ditch effort on fourth-and-1, Williams was isolated in press-man coverage against Raiders WR Davante Adams. That’s a matchup dream for an opponent, but according to DB coach Dave Merritt, the Chiefs didn’t have the slightest bit of nervousness to send Williams out there in that situation.
