Nohl Williams Shatters Doubts: "They Think I’m Not Good Enough? I’ll PROVE Them Wrong!"
Nohl Williams, the promising cornerback for the Kansas City Chiefs, is no stranger to adversity. As a rookie, Williams faced skepticism from critics who questioned whether he could live up to the expectations of playing in the NFL, let alone becoming a key player for the Chiefs' defense. But Williams has always had one thing in mind: proving everyone wrong.
"They think I’m not good enough? They were wrong! I won’t let one game determine my worth. I know what I’m capable of, and I’m going to keep fighting to show I deserve this spot,"
After being drafted in the later rounds, Williams had to earn every moment on the field. He wasn’t handed a starting job—he worked tirelessly to get there. Throughout the season, he showcased his ability, taking on top-tier wide receivers and excelling in coverage. Despite this, the Chiefs’ coaching staff made the tough decision to limit his time on the field during some key matchups.
But Williams is not one to be disheartened by setbacks. He has consistently maintained his focus, using criticism and doubt as fuel to keep pushing forward. He has been putting in the work both in practice and mentally, sharpening his skills and preparing for every opportunity to prove his worth.
Despite facing reduced snaps, Williams is confident in his abilities and is determined to break through. "One bad game or one decision by the coaches isn’t going to define who I am,"
Williams has shown time and again that he is not afraid of competition. The Chiefs have a deep defensive backfield, but Williams is determined to carve out his place. His resilience and determination to succeed in the NFL mirror the values of the Chiefs’ defensive philosophy.
His mindset is clear: "I’m not here to sit back and wait for opportunities—I’m here to create them." And with each passing week, Williams is making a strong case for why he should be a key contributor for Kansas City. Whether it’s stepping in during critical moments or providing depth when needed, Williams has demonstrated he is ready for whatever the team requires.
As the Chiefs prepare for their next games, Williams remains laser-focused, eager to show his coaches, teammates, and fans that he has what it takes to thrive in the NFL. With a never-back-down attitude and an unwavering belief in himself, Nohl Williams is not just trying to make the team—he’s here to make an impact.
Seahawks-Raiders blockbuster trade proposal would supercharge ailing pass rush

The Seattle Seahawks entered the season with a four-deep pass rush that seemed capable of being among the best in the league, thanks to a committee approach.
Seattle's pass rush has been decent, totaling 13 sacks so far this season (T-9th in NFL), but two of the team's top edge rushers are working through injuries. Additionally, most of the rush has come from the inside, as Uchenna Nwosu is the only outside rusher with at least one sack so far this season (2.5).
It's been an area of disappointment so far this season. Could the Seahawks look to make a blockbuster move before the trade deadline?

Surprisingly, despite his recently signed megadeal with the Las Vegas Raiders, Crosby is very tradable, according to Rob Staton of the Seahawks Draft Blog. The Seahawks could be first in line for a potential deal.
The Raiders would inherit a very small dead cap hit if they moved off Crosby, and it could be a beneficial transaction considering Las Vegas is currently 1-4 after a poor start to the season.
It could also be a move that takes the Seahawks' pass rush to the next level.
"According to Albert Breer, they pitched the idea of trading Geno Smith and DK Metcalf to Vegas for Crosby in the off-season," Staton wrote. "The Raiders turned it down. So we know they at least have some interest (an obvious statement given Crosby’s impact and talent).
"He’s one of the few players in the NFL I’d be willing to go big on. His relentless playing style, personality and production can be a game-changer. He’s a true star off the edge."
DeMarcus Lawrence appears to be trending towards playing this week against the Jacksonville Jaguars, but that's not a guarantee. Derick Hall won't play due to an oblique injury.
The Seahawks would likely have to include a hefty package that includes Day 1 draft compensation and one of their young pass rushers, such as Boye Mafe. But if that's what it takes to elevate Mike Macdonald's pass rush, there's a chance Seattle heavily pursues it before the deadline.
