While the Pittsburgh Steelers continue to explore their options at safety, with their four-year starter Terrell Edmunds hitting the open market today, the Baltimore Ravens made their first move of the new league year—which officially begins today—landing the top safety in this year’s free-agent class, that being former New Orleans Saints All-Pro Marcus Williams, a former second-round draft pick.
Williams, who played under the franchise tag in 2021, has yet to earn any All-Pro or Pro Bowl honors, but is regarded as one of the top young safeties in the league—not turning 26 years old until September, despite having already played five full NFL seasons.
