Avery Williams brings veteran, disruptive muscle to Tulane’s front
Averaging the kind of steady, grown-man presence coaches love, Avery Williams enters Tulane as a proven defensive tackle with 34 career games and 25 starts, plus 87 career tackles, 11 tackles for loss, four sacks, and two fumble recoveries. His value goes beyond the box score: he’s a returning starter on the right side of the line, a physical run-stuffer with reliable production and enough backfield disruption to matter on obvious passing downs. If a team wants toughness, experience, and a low-drama interior anchor, Williams checks a lot of boxes.
