Raequan Williams
Wins his gap play after play. This is his fourth year in the same defensive front at Michigan State. One game to point at: 8 tackles against Ohio State — Week 6, 2019.
Play style
Stout at the point of attack — steady tackle-for-loss production without a standout pass-rush number.

What the box score actually says
48 tackles. 2 passes defended. 0 interceptions. 7.5 TFL.
Counts only, never a rate — splash-event sample sizes this small (interceptions, pass breakups, TFL) are noise as a rate and signal only as a tally.
No outlet on our list has written about him by name this season.
