Who is the Arizona Cardinals most underrated player? PFF says Garrett Williams
Having a player underrated is an interesting concept, because the question becomes who is doing the rating?
That’s why when PFF dropped their list of most underrated players on each team I was interested who they would have for the Arizona Cardinals.
I am not surprised on who they have, but am because I feel like PFF has been banging the drum for Garrett Williams.
“Williams operated as the Cardinals’ primary slot cornerback in 2024, delivering the second-best PFF coverage grade (83.7) among qualifying cornerbacks in the regular season. He is set to once again man the slot in 2025 after allowing just a 25.9% first-down-plus-touchdown rate in coverage there this past season — tied for the seventh-best mark among 114 qualifying slot cornerbacks.”
“Williams also let up just 0.67 yards per coverage snap while working out of the slot, which was a top-five mark.”
So, is PFF saying Williams is underrated by the consensus outside of Cardinals fans and PFF? I would probably agree with that sentiment.
Anyway you slice it, Williams is going to get recognized if he continues playing at the same level. And deservedly so.
