Despite a tough blow during last year’s clash with the Titans, NFL star Connor Williams has adopted a health-oriented approach, keeping his career decisions on standby.
The devastating injury, referred to as ‘pretty significant’ by his agent, Drew Rosenhaus, has led to a pause on his free agency.
Expressing the gravity of Williams’ injury, Rosenhaus has stated, it is more about his player’s health than deciding on pursuing another contract with a new team.

Before the beginning of the past season, Williams sought a contract extension. However, Miami Dolphins’ manager Chris Grier elected not to oblige.
This decision, despite resulting in one of Williams’ finest seasons, took a sorrowful turn after his injury during the match against the Titans.
The key question now revolves around the magnitude of the phrase ‘pretty significant.’ Could this result in Williams withdrawing from the sport permanently, or just a delay to his next season?
The Dolphins seem to have moved ahead with Aaron Brewer, indicating that Williams won’t be rejoining anytime soon.
The medical severity of Williams’ injury makes it uncertain for him to sign with another team, even if he decides to make a return.
With no surety of his fitness level or recovery time, his future in NFL continues to hang in balance.
As things stand, Williams looks to be out of action until his doctors clear him medically or when he’s closer to recovery.
