Williams recorded 10 total tackles (three solo), including 1.0 sacks, in Sunday's 31-6 loss to the Cardinals. The Murray State product tied Tony Adams as the Jets' second-leading tackler in Sunday's defeat, trailing just Jamien Sherwood's 17-tackle effort. Williams also posted his second double-digit tackle game of the season, bringing his totals up to 74 tackles, including 1.0 sacks, and one pass defended through 10 weeks. He's expected to remain the Jets' top inside linebacker as the season progresses.

Williams recorded seven total tackles (five solo), including two tackles for loss, in Sunday's 10-9 loss to the Broncos. Williams has now accumulated 31 total tackles, including three tackles for loss, defended one pass and forced one fumble through the Jets' first four contests. He leads New York's defense in total tackles and forced fumbles while ranking second in tackles for loss. Williams is projected to continue being a tackling machine for this Jets defense and should be a very valuable IDP asset for the remainder of the season.

Williams tallied eight tackles (five solo) in Thursday's 24-3 win over the Patriots. Williams was one of five Jets defenders who played all 52 snaps on defense Thursday. The 2019 third-round pick hasn't missed a defensive snap through the first three games of the regular season, and over that span he has accumulated 24 tackles (18 solo), one pass defended and one fumble recovery.

Williams recorded seven tackles (five solo) and forced a fumble in Thursday's 37-20 loss to the Browns. Williams notched his second forced fumble of the season while pushing his tackle total up to 131 (91 solo). The 27-year-old linebacker's strong 2023 season has also included 10 passes defensed and an interception, as Williams has grown into a three-down role after working exclusively as an early-down run stopper in previous seasons.

Williams (knee) does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game versus the Falcons, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports. Despite being limited at practice Thursday, Williams will be available for the Jets in Week 13. He figures to be a great IDP play come Sunday, as Atlanta has run the ball on 49 percent of its offensive snaps so far this season, more often than all but two other teams.
