Leonard Williams Headed to the Pro Bowl

By Phil Sullivan Posted On January 14, 2017

The season continues for NY Jets defensive end Leonard Williams. He has been added to the AFC team for the pro bowl game, which is being held in Orlando on January 29. He takes the roster spot of Khalil Mack because he pulled out of the game.

Williams, who was the 6th overall pick in 2015, deserves this appearance. This year he had 7 sacks and started all 16 games.
