The social media harassment has gotten so bad for Saints rookie safety Marcus Williams ... he disabled his Instagram comments.
Everyone's seen the play by now ... Williams missed a tackle on Stefon Diggs in the waning seconds of Sunday's NFC divisional playoff game, allowing Diggs to bolt to the end zone for a 61-yard game-sealing TD.
All he freakin' had to do was touch the guy.
The reaction from fans on the net has been brutal ... including racial slurs.
Some haters got personal -- "i hope you become sterile and your wife leaves you for a male stripper."
Another person wrote, "Don't come back to NOLA, we don't want yo ass."
Williams -- who had a great season and a solid game before the mistake (he had an interception earlier) -- obviously doesn't wanna hear it on IG, and after the game he officially nuked his comments section.
Gonna be a long off-season.
