Shortly after dealing Sauce Gardner to the Colts, the Jets continued an organizational firesale on Tuesday’s NFL trade deadline by dealing three-time Pro Bowler Quinnen Williams to the Cowboys for a 2026 second-round pick and a 2027 first-round pick, along with DT Mazi Smith. Williams, who’ll turn 28 in December, is a former first-team All Pro and has been an organizational stalwart since his arrival with the team as the No. 3 pick in 2019.
Just as with the Gardner trade, this deal creates far too much of a ripple effect to be contained with just one thought. Here are four on a deal that now gives the Jets an absolutely massive pick arsenal over the next two seasons with which to totally reshape their franchise.
