The Jets continued making blockbuster trades before today's trading deadline, as they sent DT Quinnen Williams to the Cowboys in exchange for a 2026 second round draft pick, a 2027 first round draft pick and DT Mazi Smith.
Williams, 27, has been the biggest star on the Gang Green's defensive line since he was drafted in 2019 at #3 overall. He had his best season in 2022 when he recorded career high 12 tackles and made the All Pro team. He's also made the Pro Bowl squad in the last three seasons. Williams signed a 4-year, $96M contract extension with the Jets before the 2023 season.
DT Mazi Smith was a Cowboys first round selection in 2023. He started in all 17 games last season (1 sack, 41 tackles, 22 solo) but has played in only 5 games this season.
