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. 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 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 had six tackles (two solo), including a sack, in Sunday's 32-6 loss to Buffalo. The sack was one of Williams' two tackles for loss Sunday. Williams has been a disruptive force on the interior with seven tackles for loss despite seeing frequent double teams, but he has just two sacks through 10 games after racking up a career-high 12 sacks last season.

The Jets signed Williams to a four-year, $96 million extension Thursday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports. The deal includes $66 million guaranteed. The $24 million per year in new money makes Williams the NFL's second-highest-paid interior defensive lineman, trailing only Aaron Donald. Williams is coming off a career-best 12 sacks last season and has 27.5 total since being drafted No. 3 overall in 2019. Williams was a first-team All-Pro last year and finished seventh in Defensive Player of the Year voting. He doesn't turn 26 years old until December and should remain a foundational piece for coach Robert Saleh's defense.
