All-American LB with Elite Tackle Intensity for Western Illinois
Jason Williams, the 2005-enrolled All-American Inside Linebacker from Western Illinois, stands out not just for his 92 sophomore tackles (more than any in the league) but for his relentless 8.4 tackles-per-game average and 3-sack intensity that defies his 225-pound frame. His Chicago grit and 'never-sit' personality make him a high-fit defensive anchor, though his 2009 NFL draft to Dallas (Round 3, Pick 69) means he’s no longer active for college teams—ideal for historical analysis or NFL scouting, not current roster fit.
