The destructive nature of Quinnen Williams has helped the New York Jets emerge as dark horses for the play-offs this season. Williams’ ferocious impact on the field has come in his fourth year in the league since being selected third overall from Alabama. But after overcoming injuries and some awkward adjustments, Williams is the spark for a Jets team now 5-3 and looking to disrupt the Buffalo Bills’ coronation in the AFC.
Josh Allen is marching towards a maiden MVP, but the Buffalo passer has previously felt the heat from Williams, who clattered into him two years ago, earning him a tackle for a loss. Now with six sacks for the season, Williams, tagged as a “300-pound bar of soap” at the NFL Draft, is poised to become the first Jets player to reach double digits in that specific category since Mo Wilkerson (12) in 2015.
