As the Baltimore Ravens’ secondary floundered throughout the first half of the 2024 season, no one took more heat than veteran safety Marcus Williams. Williams, 28, had by far the worst season of his eight-year career in 2024. According to Pro Football Focus, he allowed 14 receptions for 247 yards and three touchdowns when targeted, good for a perfect passer rating of 158.3. In March, the Ravens released Williams just three years after he signed a five-year, $70 million contract as a free agent.
