Former Alabama All-American Quinnen Williams went to the Pro Bowl Games as a New York Jets defensive tackle last season. This season, his brother chasing that all-star honor. And with fan voting closing on Monday and players and coaches set to vote on Friday, Jets linebacker Quincy Williams made a final statement on Sunday.

During New York’s 30-28 victory over the Washington Commanders, Quincy Williams led the Jets with eight tackles, recorded two tackles for loss, intercepted one pass and broke up another.

Williams picked off a pass by Washington quarterback Sam Howell for his first NFL interception. An 11-yard return by Williams put the Jets on the Washington 22-yard line with 8:00 left in the third quarter, but New York failed to build on its 27-7 lead by turning over the ball.

Williams has 124 tackles, 15 tackles for loss and three sacks in 2023.

Quinnen and Quincy Williams are former Wenonah High School standouts. Quincy Williams went to Murray State before entering the NFL as the 98th selection in the 2019 draft. Quinnen Williams was the third pick in that draft.
