Fourth Rounder CB Jack Williams Signs

The rookie signings continue, as today the Denver Broncos came to terms with 4th round pick cornerback Jack Williams. Like all the rookie contracts to date, it’s a four year deal with extra bonuses and incentives added to the fourth year.

Only first round pick OT Ryan Clady and second round pick WR Eddie Royal remain unsigned. The Broncos are committed to getting both men under contract before the team reports for training camp Thursday.

Williams (5-foot-9, 181 pounds) totaled 20 takeaways (13 interceptions) in 44 career games during his college career. His senior season was particularly impressive, in which Williams had an individual-best 93 tackles (70 solo) and three interceptions as an 11-game starter. As a junior, Williams tied for first in the nation with five forced fumbles.

Good to see these deals continue to progress. Williams will see a lot of time on the field with special teams this year, and could even be a starter as early as next year.
