Williams (foot) isn't listed on the Jets' Wednesday injury report heading into the season opener against the Panthers.
Williams had surgery to repair a broken foot in early May, but his absence from the injury report confirms expectations that he would be all systems go by the time the season came around. After a pedestrian rookie season, the third overall pick in the 2019 draft broke out with seven sacks over 13 games in 2020, and Williams should continue to provide much-needed interior pressure for a Jets defense that will struggle to generate an outside pass rush in the wake of Carl Lawson's season-ending Achilles tear.
