After months of negotiations, the New York Jets and All-Pro defensive tackle Quinnen Williams have agreed to a four-year, $96 million contract, ending all speculation regarding his future.

The deal includes $66 million in guarantees, making him the second-highest defensive tackle in football behind Aaron Donald.

Williams, 25, made his first Pro Bowl and All-Pro team in 2022 after tallying 12 sacks, 28 quarterback hits, 55 tackles (12 for loss), four passes defended and two forced fumbles. He was drafted third overall by the Jets in 2019, and has gone on to be a key member of their roster.

He stays in New York alongside his older brother Quincy, who signed a three-year, $18 million contract back in March 2023.
