Malakai Williams brings edge-setting size and disruptive backfield instincts
In the 2025 season at Boise State, Malakai Williams played in 13 games and logged 11 tackles, 3 tackles for loss, 1.5 sacks and a forced fumble, showing the kind of disruptive, do-it-all physicality that gets coaches’ attention.[12] At 6-5 and 252 pounds, he offers rare size for a linebacker/edge defender and has a reputation as a high-motor, pressure-friendly playmaker with some pass-rush juice, not just a clean-up tackler.[2][5][12] If you want a long, strong, downhill defender who can help collapse the edge and play with intensity, he’s a very solid fit.
