2020 Fantasy Outlook
The sixth overall pick in 2015, Williams hasn't lived up to his pedigree thus far, but Giants GM Dave Gettleman gambled by trading a third- and a fifth-round pick for him last October and franchised him this offseason. Williams made an impact with pressures and tackles, but he's currently filing a grievance because the franchise tag was for defensive tackle rather than end, which stands to cost him $1.7 million. Assuming the parties work out their differences, Williams should play both tackle and end in the team's 3-4 alignment. Read Past Outlooks

Notches three sacks in finale
Williams had seven tackles (five solo), three sacks and a defended pass during Sunday's 23-19 win over the Cowboys.
ANALYSIS
Williams put together his strongest statistical game of the season Week 17, earning him NFC Defensive Player of the Week honors for the second time in 2020. He appeared in all 16 games with the Giants this season, recording 57 tackles (29 solo), a career-high 11.5 sacks, one defended pass and one fumble recovery. After playing on the franchise tag in 2020, Williams is no doubt now bound to collect a sizeable paycheck in free agency.

2015
Williams has been a productive but not dominant player since being selected sixth overall in 2015, but the defensive lineman's statistical impact has been limited by double teams on a Jets team that has lacked talent around him. As a result, Williams has just 89 tackles and seven sacks in the past two seasons combined after posting 68 tackles and seven sacks in 2016 alone. New York invested heavily on defense in free agency and in the draft, so Williams should get more room to wreak havoc in the opposing backfield.
