The deal includes a reported $66 million bond and is the second-largest contract ever for a defensive tackle (Aaron Donald), per the NFL Network. Williams will receive $24 million annually, less than Donald’s $31.7 million annually.

Williams, 25, missed volunteer training this spring while seeking a long-term deal.

He will get $9.59 million for his fifth year options in 2023.

Williams made his first Pro Bowl and earned First Team All-Pro honors in 2022 with 12 sacks and 28 quarterback hits in 16 starts.

He has 191 tackles and 27.5 sacks in 57 career games (53 starts) since being selected with the No. 3 overall pick in the 2019 NFL Draft.
