Josh Williams = Brandon Carr.
Give him his props.

If you actually look at the supposed "td" he allowed it was against the Bengals where Burrow had ample time to throw inside the ten yard line and Joshua wasn't the only defender in that area. So I don't put that on him tbh.
He's never really had a long run of games to fully establish himself so I think this is a great chance infront of him now. He has speed, is tall and has great length for a CB. I really think he could play at Watson's level eventually. I was looking at the snap counts from the last AFC and Superbowl games and both him and Jaylen literally played the same amount of snaps which was around 21 snaps in both games. So he's been on the field in those huge games and has that experience to lean on.
