Devon Witherspoon, cornerback for the Seattle Seahawks, has been named to the Pro Bowl for the second consecutive year, despite a season marked by fewer statistics than expected. In contrast, veteran defensive tackle Leonard Williams expressed disappointment over his omission from the Pro Bowl, despite having what he considers the best season of his career.
Williams, who recorded 9.0 sacks and notable defensive stats, felt he deserved the selection, especially given his performance compared to those who made the roster. Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith echoed Williams' sentiment, suggesting a bias against players in Seattle.
While Williams remains an alternate for the Pro Bowl, he expressed frustration over the situation, emphasizing the importance of respect from teammates and coaches over accolades.
