Details on Quincy Williams’ contract with Jets
The Jets re-signed linebacker Quincy Williams to a three-year contract worth $18 million that can max out at $21 million through incentives. The details and yearly cap hits are now known.
Williams gets a $4.5 million signing bonus and will have base salaries of $1.5 million in 2023, $6 million in 2024 and $6 million in 2025. His 2023 base salary and half of his 2024 base salary are guaranteed.

Overall, a solid contract for a key contributor to the defense.

– $3m ('23)
– $7.5m ('24)
– $7.5m ('24)Jets can cut Williams after this year at a wash, but it pretty much ties Williams to #NYJ for two years.
