Kevin Williams has more First Team All-Pro selections than every active player not named Shane Lechler, Peyton Manning or Joe Thomas. Chances are, the average fan was entirely unaware of that reality.

Despite the fact that he’s not a household name, Williams has built a Hall of Fame resume. Now he deserves a ring.

Williams started eight regular season and all three postseason games for the Seattle Seahawks in 2014. He nearly won the Super Bowl, but a now infamous play call prevented that from happening.

Now 35, the window could be closing on Williams.

No matter what happens from hereon out, Williams is safe as one of the most dominant players of his era. A ring is clearly the goal, however, and that makes 2015 an interesting season to monitor.

Could Williams help Drew Brees rediscover his magic with the New Orleans Saints in 2015?
