Part 2/9:
According to insights from renowned NFL reporter Ian Rapoport, the Jets are moving Quinn Williams, a top-tier defensive lineman, to the Cowboys. This trade is described as "blockbuster" and underscores the Jets’ apparent willingness to tear down and rebuild. The trade involves at least one first-round pick, specifically from the Cowboys, with reports conflicting on whether additional picks or players are involved.
The Jets, currently standing at a record of 1-7, have clearly signaled they are starting from scratch, with this trade emblematic of their total rebuild strategy. Williams, age 27 and widely regarded as among the best at his position, is considered a significant loss but also an indication of the team's serious rebuild plans.
