Jets Place All-Pro LB Quincy Williams on IR for Minimum Four Games

The injury forces New York to reshuffle a defense struggling for stops.

Overview

  • Williams injured his left shoulder in Sunday’s 29-27 loss at Tampa Bay and the IR designation rules him out for at least four games, with reports indicating the setback is not season-ending.
  • The Jets signed linebacker Mark Robinson off the Patriots’ practice squad to the 53-man roster and placed Marcelino McCrary-Ball on IR with a hamstring injury while adding Ben Niemann to the practice squad.
  • New York acquired cornerback Jarvis Brownlee Jr. from the Titans in a late-round pick swap, receiving a 2026 seventh-rounder and sending a 2026 sixth.
  • The defense has allowed 93 points through three games with no takeaways under new leadership, heightening the short-term impact of losing a first-team All-Pro tackler.
  • The 0-3 Jets next face the Dolphins on Monday night, with quarterback Justin Fields in concussion protocol and his availability uncertain.
