Williams recorded seven tackles (five solo), including 1.0 sacks and an additional tackle for a loss, in Sunday's 28-27 loss to the Colts. The defensive tackle also played on 72 percent of the defensive snaps. Williams has 32 tackles (22 solo), including 6.0 sacks, on the year.
Williams recorded three tackles (two solo) including 1.5 sacks during Sunday's 25-22 loss at New England. Williams was a serious problem for the Patriots' rickety offensive line throughout the afternoon, and it manifested in the box score for his third sack of the season. He'll look to carry his momentum into Week 9 versus the Texans, though his position generally makes him a better real-life asset than he is an IDP play.
Williams logged three tackles (two solo), including 1.0 sacks, during Monday's 23-20 loss to the Bills. Williams got to Josh Allen midway through the fourth quarter for a sack, and the Jets were able to hold the line on the next play to force the Bills to kick a 22-yard field goal. Williams is now up to 2.0 sacks on the season, which is third-most on the Jets behind Will McDonald (7.5) and Micheal Clemons (2.5).
Williams registered two solo tackles, including 1.0 sacks, in Thursday's 24-3 win over the Patriots. Williams sacked Jacoby Brissett for a 12-yard loss midway through the third quarter, which forced the Patriots to punt on the next play. It was Williams' first sack of the year after he posted 5.5 sacks in the 2023 regular season. The 2019 first-round pick will look to disrupt the Broncos' offensive line in Week 4.
Williams (shoulder) was left off the Jets' injury report Thursday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports. Williams had been dealing with a shoulder since mid-August, but he was not listed on the Jets' first injury report of the week Thursday and will be good to go for Monday's game against the 49ers. The 2019 first-round pick will anchor the Jets' defensive line alongside Javon Kinlaw, Jermaine Johnson and Micheal Clemons.
Williams missed practice Thursday with a shoulder injury, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports. Coach Robert Saleh said he's not concerned about Williams, so it doesn't sound like a long-term issue. Williams made all 17 starts in 2023, but his sack total dipped from 12 in 2022 to 5.5 last season. Williams will be looking to get after the quarterback more this season in what is still a strong Jets defense.
