Williams recorded seven total tackles (four solo), including 1.0 sacks, and a forced fumble in Sunday's 26-21 loss to the Seahawks. Williams forced a fumble on rush attempt by Kenneth Walker on the first play of the game, but it was recovered by the Seahawks. Williams later added a sack of Geno Smith in the third quarter, raising his season total to 2.0 sacks. The linebacker has registered 87 total tackles (56 solo), including the 2.0 sacks, while also adding three forced fumbles, two fumble recoveries and a pass defensed over 12 games in 2024.
Williams recorded 10 total tackles (three solo), including 1.0 sacks, in Sunday's 31-6 loss to the Cardinals. The Murray State product tied Tony Adams as the Jets' second-leading tackler in Sunday's defeat, trailing just Jamien Sherwood's 17-tackle effort. Williams also posted his second double-digit tackle game of the season, bringing his totals up to 74 tackles, including 1.0 sacks, and one pass defended through 10 weeks. He's expected to remain the Jets' top inside linebacker as the season progresses.
Williams recorded seven total tackles (five solo), including two tackles for loss, in Sunday's 10-9 loss to the Broncos. Williams has now accumulated 31 total tackles, including three tackles for loss, defended one pass and forced one fumble through the Jets' first four contests. He leads New York's defense in total tackles and forced fumbles while ranking second in tackles for loss. Williams is projected to continue being a tackling machine for this Jets defense and should be a very valuable IDP asset for the remainder of the season.
Williams tallied eight tackles (five solo) in Thursday's 24-3 win over the Patriots. Williams was one of five Jets defenders who played all 52 snaps on defense Thursday. The 2019 third-round pick hasn't missed a defensive snap through the first three games of the regular season, and over that span he has accumulated 24 tackles (18 solo), one pass defended and one fumble recovery.
As he has all season, Williams was all over the field Sunday and registered double-digit tackles for the fourth time this season. He's recorded at least nine tackles in all but one game this year and has played in at least 96 percent of defensive snaps in all seven contests. He's tied with C.J. Mosley with the most tackles on the team (71) and should continue to get heavily involved in Week 9 against the Chargers on Monday night.
