Quinnen Williams is now deservedly, one of the highest-paid defensive tackles in the NFL after signing a four-year, $96 million extension. So where do some of his numbers rank among his fellow defensive tackles? Let’s take a look, via Spotrac.
The first number most tend to look at is the average annual value of the deal. Williams landed a deal worth an average of $24 million per year, good for second in the league among defensive tackles and jumping ahead of all the new deals that were signed this offseason by Jeffery Simmons ($23.5 million per), Daron Payne ($22.5 million), Dexter Lawrence ($21.875 million), Javon Hargrave ($21 million) and Ed Oliver ($17 million).
