Quinnen Williams: ‘The world knew’ I was reaching my Jets breaking point before trade
NY Post
Quinnen Williams was tired of losing with the Jets.
The three-time Pro Bowl defensive tackle sounded off on Gang Green’s poor play after being dealt to the Cowboys for a 2026 second-rounder, 2027 first-rounder and DT Mazi Smith before Tuesday’s trade deadline.
“I think the world knew I was frustrated being there so long and still losing,” Williams told reporters Wednesday. “Any ultracompetitor, man, any guy who plays this game to win is going to be frustrated no matter if you win 100 games and lose that one.”
Williams’ comments confirm rumors of him being unhappy with the Jets, who are 1-7 heading into their Week 10 game against the Browns.
Williams, a 2019 first-round pick and 2022 first team All-Pro, was never part of a winning Jets team in seven seasons.
Despite his frustrations with the team, Williams made it clear his heart was still in New York after the blockbuster deal in a goodbye to Jets fans on social media.
