Devon Williams is Minnesota’s steady, high-volume linebacker with real playmaking pop
In the 2025 season, Devon Williams was a do-it-all anchor for Minnesota, finishing second on the team with 89 tackles while adding 8.5 tackles for loss, 2.5 sacks and two pass breakups[1]. He brings the kind of sturdy, experienced LB profile coaches love: 6-1, 230, active in the box, productive against the run and disruptive enough to finish plays behind the line[1][4]. The catch? Minnesota’s 2026 roster notes him as a departure after graduation, so he’s more a “what he already was” than a current fit—unless you’re grading his tape for transfer-era linebacker standards[13].
