Connor Williams has decided to retire from football at the age of 27, citing personal reasons. The former Dallas Cowboys lineman had started all nine games for the Seahawks this season after joining the team in 2024. A second-round draft pick in 2018, Williams had a solid career in Dallas before playing for the Miami Dolphins, where he started all 17 games in 2022. Despite his contributions, including a strong performance at center this season, he has chosen to step away from the game. Olu Oluwatimi will take over his position in the lineup moving forward.
