Burden targeted on second INT when Williams failed to get ball out of bounds under pressure

Luther Burden III was targeted on the second interception of the game, where Williams faced immediate A-gap pressure and attempted to throw the ball away without getting tagged with intentional grounding. Williams fired the ball in Burden's direction but didn't get enough on the throw to get the ball out of the field of play, and Cornerback Zyon McCollum made a toe-tapping catch to turn the ball over. The source notes this wasn't a matter of Williams misdiagnosing the defense or getting fooled by coverage, but rather an execution issue on not getting the ball out of bounds.
