News

  • Back with Titans

    Williamson agreed to return to the Titans' active roster Tuesday, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.

    Analysis: The Titans signed Williamson off the Broncos' practice squad. The 29-year-old suited up for all but one of 64 potential games in Tennessee after being drafted in the fifth round of the 2014 NFL Draft. After accumulating time with the Jets, Steelers and Broncos across the previous four seasons, he figures to bring experience and depth to the team's linebacker unit going forward.

  • Links up with Denver

    Williamson was signed to the Broncos' practice squad Wednesday.

    Analysis: Williamson has 85 starts in his NFL career and will bring a veteran presence to Denver's practice squad. The 29-year-old split 2020 between the Steelers and Jets, recording 111 tackles (73 solo), one sack and one interception in 15 games.

  • Monster tackling effort

    Williamson posted 14 tackles (nine solo) and a sack in Sunday's 28-24 win over the Colts.

    Analysis: Williamson made his first start for the Steelers in Week 14. Over the three games as a starter, Williamson has posted 32 tackles and a sack. He'll look to cap off a successful run in the regular-season finale against the Browns.

  • Double-digit tackles Sunday

    Williamson recorded 11 tackles (nine solo) across 67 defensive snaps in Sunday's loss to the Bills.

    Analysis: Williamson led the team in tackles Sunday, as he now has 20 tackles over the past two weeks. Sunday was by far Williamson's highest snap count on defense (89 percent) since being traded to the Steelers. He'll now shift his focus to a primetime matchup with the Bengals.

  • Nine tackles in place of Spillane

    Williamson finished with a team-high nine tackles (six solo) and a tackle for loss in Monday's 23-17 loss to Washington.

    Analysis: Williamson filled in admirably as the starting inside linebacker with Robert Spillane (knee) out. The trade deadline acquisition from the Jets should continue to start for as long as Spillane is sidelined.

  • Filling in as starter

    Williamson is expected to take over the starting inside linebacker role in replace of the injured Robert Spillane (knee), Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: After being traded to the Steelers in November, Williamson will have the opportunity to start at inside linebacker because of the knee injury Spillane suffered Monday. The veteran had essentially been insurance for the Steelers' linebacking corps, recording just three tackles with the Steelers prior to Monday, but if the loss against Washington is any indication, expect Williamson to be a worthy IDP option as the full-time starter (nine tackles).

  • Shifts to 53-man roster

    Williamson had his roster exemption lifted Saturday, and he's officially on the Steelers' 53-man roster, Teresa Varley of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: The Steelers traded for Williamson earlier in the week, and he's passed the necessary COVID-19 protocols to join the team for Sunday's game versus the Cowboys. Williamson handled a starting role with the Jets this year, as he posted 59 tackles, three pass breakups and an interception through seven games. However, the veteran is expected to serve as an inside linebacker Robert Spillane's backup in Pittsburgh.

  • Filling reserve role

    Williamson is expected to serve as the backup to Robert Spillane after being acquired by the Steelers on Sunday, Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

    Analysis: Williamson recorded nine tackles Sunday afternoon for the Jets against the Chiefs and was shipped to the Steelers by the end of the day. The 28-year-old totaled 59 tackles through seven games this season, but he'll be filling a reserve role for his new team. He may not be available for Week 9 since he won't be allowed to join the team until Saturday due to the COVID-19 restrictions when heading to a new team.

  • Pittsburgh-bound in trade

    Williamson was traded to the Steelers on Sunday along with a 2022 seventh-round pick for Pittsburgh's 2022 fifth-rounder, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Williamson goes from the only winless team in the league to the lone undefeated team. Once he gets acclimated to his new surroundings, Williamson figures to slide into a starting inside linebacker role for the Steelers. He suited up for the Jets earlier Sunday, leading the team with nine tackles in a 35-9 loss to the Chiefs.

  • Another double-digit tackle game

    Williamson racked up 13 tackles (four solo) in Sunday's 18-10 loss to the Bills.

    Analysis: Williamson has 24 tackles in the last two games. New York's defense will likely spend the majority of the game on the field in Week 8 against the Chiefs, which should give the veteran inside linebacker plenty of opportunities to pad his tackle total.

  • Eleven tackles in Week 6

    Williamson recorded a team-high 11 tackles, all solo, in Sunday's 24-0 loss to the Dolphins.

    Analysis: Williamson played well once again, but few of his teammates on either side of the ball can say the same. The 28-year-old inside linebacker seems to be fully recovered from last year's ACL surgery, as Williamson now has 34 tackles, an interception and three passes defensed in his last four games.

  • Plays well in defeat

    Williamson had eight tackles (six solo), two passes defensed and an interception in Sunday's 30-10 loss to the Cardinals.

    Analysis: Williamson was effective against both the run and the pass, but his effort went for naught, as the Jets fell to 0-5. He picked off Kyler Murray at Arizona's 31-yard line and returned it all the way to the 10, only to watch New York settle for a field goal to make it 7-3 Cardinals at the time. That's as close as the Jets would get the rest of the way. After working his way back from injury in a sheltered role to start the season, Williamson has come on with 23 tackles in the last three games.

  • Nine tackles in Week 3 loss

    Williamson recorded nine tackles (five solo) in Sunday's 36-7 loss to the Colts.

    Analysis: Williamson was one tackle shy of Bradley McDougald's team-high total on the afternoon. The veteran linebacker was injured to start the season but is rounding into form and should be a steady source of tackles moving forward.

  • Ready to rock

    Williamson (hamstring) is officially active for Sunday's game against the 49ers.

    Analysis: Williamson was a limited participant in practice throughout the week after he suffered the hamstring injury in Week 1's loss to the Bills. Now presumably healthy, he'll assume his usual starting role at one of the inside linebacker positions for Sunday's contest.

  • Officially questionable

    Williamson (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the 49ers.

    Analysis: No surprise here, as Williamson was a limited participant at practice all week. His status will presumably be determined by how he is feeling closer to kickoff. If he is unable to go, look for Harvey Langi to see increased reps at inside linebacker.

  • Set for limited practice

    Williamson (hamstring) is expected to be a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Andy Vasquez of The Bergen Record reports.

    Analysis: Williamson's hamstring injury kept him from suiting up Week 1 against Buffalo, and the Jets' defense was noticeably poorer for it. Coach Adam Gase said that the team will take a cautious approach to Williamson's health in order to avoid any setbacks, but New York's linebacker corps desperately needs Williamson to retake the field sooner rather than later.

  • Ruled out for Week 1

    Williamson (hamstring) is ruled out for Sunday's divisional contest against the Bills, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Williamson began the week as a limited participant in practice, but he's since missed back-to-back sessions. He stands to play a starting role in New York's linebacker corps when healthy, but until Williamson can get on the field, Blake Cashman should have an opportunity for increased snaps.

  • Restructures contract

    Williamson agreed Monday to a restructured 2020 contract worth $3.5 million, including $1 million guaranteed, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Williamson will have the earning potential of $5 million, but the new deal saves the Jets $3.75 million in cap space for the 2020 season. The 28-year-old is coming off a torn ACL that cost him his 2019 season, so the restructuring could be looked at as a "prove-it" deal before he enters free agency this coming offseason.

  • Returns to practice

    Williamson (knee) was activated from the PUP list Saturday, Ethan B. Greenberg of the Jets' official site reports.

    Analysis: Williamson has been recovering from an ACL tear that resulted in him missing the entire 2019 season. His value for the Jets increased after C.J. Mosley's decision to opt out opened up more cap space for the Jets and made him more of a priority. Barring any setbacks, he 28-year-old appears on track for Week 1.

  • On track for Week 1

    Williamson (knee) said Wednesday that he expects to be healthy for the start of the 2020 season, Al Iannazzone of Newsday reports.

    Analysis: Williamson is recovering from an ACL tear that caused him to miss the entire 2019 campaign. He looked like a potential cut candidate in New York earlier this offseason, but C.J. Mosley's decision to opt out both opens up cap space for the Jets and makes Williamson more of a priority. The 28-year-old managed 120 tackles, three sacks and an interceptions across 16 games with the team back in 2018.

  • Potential offseason cut

    The Jets might consider releasing Williamson (knee) once he can pass a physical, Connor Hughes of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Signed to a three-year, $22.5 million contract during the 2018 offseason, Williamson had 120 tackles and three sacks in his first year with the Jets but then suffered an ACL tear last preseason. The timing of the injury should allow him to complete his rehab before Week 1, potentially having him join 2019 offseason pickup C.J. Mosley (groin) to give the Jets a formidable duo in the middle of their defense. On the other hand, Mosley's contract still has strong guarantees and Williamson's…read more
