Connor Williams, a former interior offensive lineman for the Miami Dolphins and Dallas Cowboys, is scheduled to meet with the Seattle Seahawks on Tuesday. This update was first reported by ESPN’s Adam Schefter on Monday.
Williams’ agent, Drew Rosenhaus, announced in late June that the former second-round pick has recovered from last year’s season-ending ACL injury and is eager to continue playing as a center.

Last season, Evan Brown, who started 16 games for Seattle, signed a one-year deal with the Arizona Cardinals. Given this, the Seahawks are looking for an experienced center. Currently, their roster includes Nick Harris, Olu Oluwatimi, and Michael Novitsky, who together accumulated 350 snaps at center last season, while Williams played 497 snaps despite some injuries.

Although it’s not ideal to make significant free-agent acquisitions just before training camp, if Williams is healthy, he could provide a valuable upgrade for Seattle.
