New England Patriots defensive tackle Milton Williams revealed how he is using his four-year, $104 million contract.
Williams was viewed as arguably the Patriots’ biggest acquisition in free agency. So far, he has lived up to his enormous price tag this season, including securing a game-winning sack against Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa in Week 2.

He has six tackles and two sacks on the season and has been a key part of the Patriots’ defensive line. When asked about what he’s purchased so far with the contract money, the veteran defender didn’t hesitate to respond.
“Obviously, I retired my parents. I got them set up. They’re good,” Williams said on Patriots Unfiltered. “I got me a new car. Y’all probably saw my chain after the game on Sunday. …That was one of my big purchases, but other than that, I ain’t been going too crazy.”
The combination of Williams and Christian Barmore has looked like one of the best interior defensive line combos in the NFL. It’s a major step in the right direction for a Patriots team that came into free agency determined to improve in the trenches.
