Williams has played in a reserve role for the Cleveland Browns and provides depth for the Eagles.

With the Eagles, Williams will likely compete for the top reserve spot at outside cornerback. Williams, a second-round pick in 2019, spent the first four years of his career with the Cleveland Browns. The 6-foot-2, 185-pound defensive back was a two-year starter at LSU with eight career interceptions during that span.

Report: Eagles agree to terms with CB Greedy Williams (PhillyVoice.com)

The Philadelphia Eagles agreed to terms with former Browns CB Greedy Williams late Thursday night, according to a report from Mary Kay Cabot of The Plain ...

Williams has the instincts and tools to play a variety of coverages, but his length and pattern-matching talent will likely get him drafted to handle press-man duties. He's 6'2 and he ran a 4.37 40 at the Combine, which is a nice start. In 2022, he was buried on the depth chart behind Denzel Ward and 2021 first-round pick Greg Newsome, and played just 105 defensive snaps. He played in 12 games in 2019 as a rookie, but missed four games with a hamstring injury. He has 99 career tackles and 2 INTs. As Cabot notes, Williams was a second-round pick (46th overall) in 2019.
