Browns' Quincy Williams: Limited to open Week 10 prep
Williams (hamstring) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
Williams has been working through a hamstring issue as of late, although he was cleared to play against the Saints in Week 9, when he logged seven tackles (five solo) in a 23-22 overtime loss for the Browns. He's opened Week 10 prep with a limited session, and he has two more chances to log a full practice and avoid an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Texans.

Head coach Todd Monken stated he is "optimistic" Williams will be available for the Week 9 meeting with the Saints. Although the 30-year-old was limited Thursday, it seems he's at least moving in the right direction. Williams has appeared in all eight of Cleveland's games this season, amassing 55 total tackles (32 solo), 1.0 sacks and four forced fumbles.

Browns' Quincy Williams: Not practicing Wednesday
Williams (hamstring) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.
Williams missed Wednesday's practice with a hamstring injury, which likely occurred at some point during the Browns' Week 8 loss to the Steelers. However, head coach Todd Monken said he is "optimistic" that the 30-year-old will be ready for Week 9. Williams will need to upgrade his practice status by Friday for a chance to play.

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.
