Browns' Quincy Williams: Posts 10 stops against Tennessee
Williams finished Sunday's 27-24 win over the Titans with 10 tackles (seven solo).
Williams was working through neck and back injuries during Week 7 prep, but he was cleared to play Sunday and ended up playing every single defensive snap while co-leading the Browns in tackles with Ronnie Hickman. It was the second time in three games that Williams recorded double-digit stops, and he is up to 50 tackles (30 solo), including 1.0 sacks, two pass defenses and three forced fumbles through seven regular-season contests.

Browns' Quincy Williams: Green light for Week 7
Williams (neck) is active for Sunday's game against Tennessee.
Williams was limited in Friday's practice, an upgrade from his inactivity both Wednesday and Thursday. That was enough for him to draw the questionable tag for Week 7, and the veteran linebacker has been cleared by medical staff after going through pregame warmups. Williams has tallied at least six total tackles in four of his last five games.

Browns' Quincy Williams: Optimism for Week 7
Williams (neck) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Titans but expressed optimism Friday that he would play, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports.
Williams didn't practice Thursday due to a neck injury, but he was cleared to return for Friday's session, for which he was listed as a limited participant. The veteran linebacker told reporters that he was at full speed during Friday's practice, but his official status may not be known until 90 minutes before Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff, which is when the Browns will announce their list of inactive players. If Williams cannot play, then Justin Jefferson and Winston Reid would be the top candidates to start alongside Carson Schwesinger and Easton Mascarenas-Arnold at linebacker.

Browns' Quincy Williams: Dealing with back injury
Williams (neck) did not participate at the Browns' practice Thursday.
Williams was added to the injury report with an apparent neck injury Thursday, and he was forced to miss practice. The linebacker will have another chance to return to the field for the team's final practice Friday, but if he is unavailable in Week 7, Justin Jefferson would be a top candidate to draw a start at strongside linebacker versus the Titans.

Browns' Quincy Williams: Gets two-year deal with Cleveland
Williams and the Browns agreed to a two-year contract Monday, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.
Williams is expected to take the starting linebacker spot vacated by Devin Bush after the latter signed a three-year deal with the Bears on Monday. Williams logged 100-plus tackles in four consecutive seasons from 2021 to 2024, but that streak was broken last year after he missed four games while on injured reserve due to a shoulder injury. The Murray State product finished with 83 tackles (45 solo), including a career-high 3.5 sacks, and seven pass defenses across 13 regular-season games in 2025.

Jets' Quincy Williams: Dips to 83 tackles in 2025
Williams (hand) recorded 83 tackles (45 solo), including 3.5 sacks, and seven passes defensed across 13 appearances in 2025.
Williams fell short of 100 tackles for the first time in five seasons with the Jets as injuries and age took their toll on the 29-year-old linebacker. He dealt with shoulder and hand injuries throughout the season and exited the regular-season finale as the latter injury flared up on him. The Jets traded away Quincy's brother Quinnen Williams during the 2025 season and are unlikely to retain the remaining Williams brother in free agency.

Jets' Quincy Williams: Dealing with hand injury
Williams (hand) is questionable to return to Sunday's contest against the Bills.
Williams suffered an apparent hand injury in the third quarter, and his status for the rest of the game is now in question. In his absence, Mykal Walker is a top candidate to see increased reps at linebacker versus Buffalo.

Jets' Quincy Williams: Six tackles in loss
Williams recorded six tackles (five solo) in the Jets' loss to the Patriots on Sunday.
Williams played 96 percent of the defensive snaps against New England and has now logged 80 tackles (42 solo), including 3.5 sacks, and six pass breakups on 91 percent of the defensive snaps across 12 appearances this season.

Jets' Quincy Williams: Posts 11 stops in Week 16 loss
Williams finished Sunday's loss to New Orleans with 11 tackles (six solo).
Williams and Jamien Sherwood co-led the Jets in stops in defeat. The 11-tackle tally was a season best for Williams, whose previous high mark on the campaign was eight stops. It's been a down year overall for Williams, and with 74 tackles through 11 games, it seems likely that he'll fall short of triple-digit stops for the first time since 2020.

Jets' Quincy Williams: Ready for Sunday
Williams (hand) doesn't have an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Jaguars, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Williams managed to upgrade to full practice participation Friday, just in time to avoid an injury designation for Sunday's contest. The linebacker played 100 percent of defensive snaps in last Sunday's loss to the Dolphins and has not dropped below a 71 percent snap share since returning from a shoulder injury in Week 8.
