2024 Fantasy Outlook
Citing Williams' tackle total as the reason that 2023 was the best season of his career would be underselling what he managed to accomplish. He went from among the worst linebackers in coverage in the first four years of his career to the second-best inside linebacker in PFF coverage grade in 2023. Unsurprisingly, that led to more trust from the team and Williams' highest snap count in his five years as a pro. Williams had already proven himself as an excellent tackler but his ability to develop other areas of his game will help him maintain fantasy relevance - particularly in leagues that reward tackles.

Williams recorded 10 total tackles (three solo), including 1.0 sacks, in Sunday's 31-6 loss to the Cardinals.
ANALYSIS
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.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
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.
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.

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.
