Seahawks CB Dee Williams Out vs. 49ers
Seattle's secondary takes another hit
Williams has been a key contributor for the Seahawks this season
The Seattle Seahawks will be without cornerback Dee Williams when they take on the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday. Williams suffered a hamstring injury in practice this week and has been ruled out for the game.
Williams has been a key contributor for the Seahawks this season, starting all 10 games and recording 41 tackles, three interceptions, and five pass breakups.
His absence will be a blow to the Seahawks' secondary, which is already without starting safety Jamal Adams, who is on injured reserve with a shoulder injury.
The Seahawks will likely start Tre Brown opposite Sidney Jones at cornerback on Sunday. Brown has started two games this season, recording 10 tackles and one pass breakup.
The Seahawks will need Brown to step up in Williams' absence and help slow down the 49ers' passing attack, which is led by quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo and wide receiver Deebo Samuel.
