2023 Fantasy Outlook
Williams re-signed with the Jets on a three-year, $18 million contract after back-to-back 100-tackle seasons. The linebacker, who turns 27 in August, projects to return to a starting role in 2023. Quinnen Williams' brother can get lost in coverage at times and needs to work on his angles, but Quincy's one of the biggest hitters in the NFL and should continue to rack up plenty of tackles. Williams has complemented his 216 tackles over the past two seasons with 21 tackles for loss, five sacks, six passes defensed and three forced fumbles. Read Past Outlooks

January 14, 2024
Williams finished the 2023 season with 2.0 sacks among his 139 tackles (95 solo), as well as 10 passes defensed, including one interception.
ANALYSIS
Williams was named a first-team All-Pro by the Associated Press, as he was among the league's top performers at linebacker. After exceeding 100 tackles in each of the previous two seasons, Williams set a career high in that category, and his 10 passes defensed were three more than Williams had in 49 NFL appearances entering 2023. Williams will be back with the Jets in 2024, having signed a three-year contract prior to the 2023 campaign.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Team sees Pro Bowl potential
LBNew York Jets
May 22, 2022
New York's coaching staff believes Williams has the potential to be a Pro Bowl caliber player, Connor Hughes of The Athletic relays.
ANALYSIS
Williams set career highs across the board last season after being claimed on waivers from the Jaguars. The linebacker had some highlight-reel hits but also overcommitted at times and got out of position. Williams should maintain a prominent role in 2022, and the Jets expect him to take a major step forward by learning to harness his aggression and play more under control.

2022 Fantasy Outlook
Williams had a breakout season in 2021 after the Jets scooped him up on waivers from Jacksonville. The hard-hitting linebacker totaled 110 tackles (73 solo), five passes defensed and three forced fumbles. Williams' pass coverage is a work in progress, but the Jets' coaches believe they can mold him into an effective three-down linebacker, and he's already one of the team's most proficient run defenders.
