Jacksonville Jaguars’ Marquez Williams Could Be 2017’s Unsung Hero

With the selection of Leonard Fournette in round one and Cam Robinson in round two of the 2017 NFL Draft, the Jacksonville Jaguars added a running back and offensive tackle that should pair nicely to improve the offense. Expect both players to get plenty of well-deserved attention throughout the season.

But it may be the other complementary piece, selected in the seventh round, that may be the overlooked hero of 2017. Marquez Williams, a bowling ball of a lead blocker, could become the fullback the Jaguars have needed over the past few seasons.

Without a fullback on the roster for the last couple seasons, the Jaguars have struggled running the ball.
