Jets' Quincy Williams: Logs eight tackles vs. Patriots
Williams recorded eight total tackles (six solo) in Thursday night's 27-14 loss to the Patriots.
The Murray State product tied Jarvis Brownlee, Jamien Sherwood and Brandon Stephens for the most stops on the Jets' defense during Thursday's loss. Since returning from injury in the Week 8 win over the Bengals, Williams has tallied 23 total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, and two passes defended over just three contests. He's expected to remain a viable IDP option in the Jets' Week 12 matchup against the Ravens.

Jets' Quincy Williams: Seven tackles in win
Williams compiled seven total tackles (five solo), including 1.0 sacks, in Sunday's 27-20 win over the Browns.
Williams was ticketed to see a drop in workload in Week 10, but that didn't necessarily transpire. The linebacker finished tied for third on the team with safety Isaiah Oliver in takedowns, and he was able to get to Dillon Gabriel for a sack in the third quarter. Williams is now up to 29 total tackles (16 solo), including 2.5 sacks, while also adding four passes defensed over five games this year.

Jets' Quincy Williams: Loses starting gig
Williams was informed that he's lost his starting job Wednesday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Williams spoke with the media Wednesday, stating that "my coaches told me I was underperforming, that I've been underperforming since training camp." The linebacker is "not thrilled" with the decision, but he intends to win his job back. It's unclear who will replace Williams against the Browns on Sunday, but Ja'Markis Weston and Kobe King are two candidates to do so.

Jets' Quincy Williams: Comes back and makes plays
Williams finished with seven tackles (three solo) and two pass breakups in Sunday's 39-38 win over the Bengals.
The outside linebacker missed the previous four games with a shoulder injury. Williams is up to 22 tackles (11 solo), including 1.5 sacks, and four passes defensed on the season. He's played most of the defensive snaps this season when available, and that shouldn't change after the Jets' Week 9 bye.

Jets' Quincy Williams: Cleared to return Week 8
Williams (shoulder) is active for Sunday's game against the Bengals.
The Jets activated Williams from injured reserve Saturday, and the 2019 third-rounder has been officially cleared to return from a four-game absence due to a shoulder injury. He'll likely see a heavy dose of defensive snaps in his return, which means there will be less opportunities for Ja'Markis Weston and Mykal Walker to see the field on defense.

Jets' Quincy Williams: Activated from injured reserve
The Jets activated Williams (shoulder) from injured reserve Saturday, but he is still listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bengals.
Williams was cleared to return to practice Wednesday after missing the Jets' last four games due to a shoulder injury. He was a full participant in practice all week, and while he's still questionable, his activation from IR indicates that he is tracking toward playing Week 8. Williams' return would mean less rotational snaps at linebacker for Kobe King, Ja'Markis Weston and Mykal Walker.

Jets' Quincy Williams: Practice window opens
Williams (shoulder) was designated to return from the injured reserve list Wednesday.
The Murray State product has been sidelined for the Jets' last four games after sustaining a shoulder injury during the Week 3 loss to the Buccaneers. However, his practice window opened Wednesday, and he now has 21 days to be added to the team's active roster before reverting to IR. Williams is an integral part of the Jets' defense, recording 116 total tackles, including 2.0 sacks, four passes defended and four forced fumbles over 17 games in 2024. When fully healthy, he's expected to operate as one of the Jets' top linebackers.

Jets' Quincy Williams: Lands on injured reserve
The Jets placed Williams (shoulder) on injured reserve Tuesday.
Williams suffered a shoulder injury during the first half of Sunday's 29-27 loss to the Buccaneers, finishing the game with four tackles (three solo), including 0.5 sacks, and one pass defense. He'll be required to miss at least the next four games, which makes Week 8 against the Bengals on Sunday, Oct. 26 the earliest he can return. With Williams and Marcelino McCrary-Ball (hamstring) both on injured reserve, the Jets will turn to Mark Robinson, Cam Jones and rookie fifth-rounder Francisco Mauigoa to serve at outside linebacker with the first-team defense.

Jets' Quincy Williams: Won't return due to shoulder injury
Williams has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Buccaneers due to a shoulder injury.
Williams suffered the injury during the first half of Sunday's game. After being evaluated in the locker room during halftime, the injury has been deemed severe enough that he won't return, and he will finish with four tackles (three solo), including 0.5 sacks. Cam Jones should see more work at outside linebacker the rest of the way due to Williams' injury.

Jets' Quincy Williams: Posts Week 1 sack
Williams recorded six tackles (four solo), including 1.0 sacks, in Sunday's Week 1 loss to Pittsburgh.
Williams' sack came at a critical time -- he brought down Aaron Rodgers in a one-point game midway through the fourth quarter, leading to a Pittsburgh punt. The linebacker isn't typically a big part of New York's pass rush, having tallied a modest 9.0 regular-season sacks over his first four campaigns with the club. However, he's also compiled at least 106 tackles in each season during that span.

Jets' Quincy Williams: Fourth straight 100-tackle season
Williams finished the 2024 season with 2.0 sacks among his 116 tackles (74 solo), as well as four passes defensed, four forced fumbles and three fumbles recovered.
Williams posted a fourth consecutive season with at least 106 tackles and continued his strong play despite the Jets' defense taking a step back as a unit. The 28-year-old linebacker will carry a cap hit of $8.425 million in 2025 as he wraps up a three-year, $18 million contract.

Jets' Quincy Williams: Leading tackler at Buffalo
Williams recorded 10 tackles (five solo) and a pass defensed during Sunday's 40-14 loss against the Bills.
Williams was on the field for all 62 of the Jets' defensive snaps in Week 17, and he posted a double-digit tackle total for the third time this season. He figures to retain a near-every down role when the Jets host the Dolphins in Week 18.
