Third straight 11-tackle game

Williamson recorded 11 tackles (three solo) in Sunday's 27-13 loss to the Patriots.

Analysis: Williamson would have liked his first season with Gang Green to feature a few more wins, but he's having a successful campaign on an individual level. He's recorded 11 tackles in each of the past three games, bringing his season total to 89 through 11 contests.

Logs 11 tackles in loss

Williamson recorded 11 tackles (seven solo) and one forced fumble during Sunday's 41-10 loss to the Bills.

Analysis: Williamson was one of the lone bright spots for Gang Green's defense, which allowed Buffalo's offense to score 41 points during a Week 10 loss. Prior to Week 10, the Bills had eclipsed 20 points only once this season. Williamson has posted more than 10 tackles in two consecutive weeks and will look to continue his streak during Sunday's game against the Patriots.

Posts 12 tackles in loss

Williamson recorded 12 tackles (seven solo) and a sack during Sunday's 13-6 loss to the Dolphins.

Analysis: Williamson recorded his second highest tackle total of the season, having now accumulated 56 tackles on the year. The five-year pro was a bright spot among Gang Green's starters Week 9 and will look to continue building upon a strong season during next Sunday's tilt against the Bills.

Nine tackles in win

Williamson recorded nine tackles (seven solo) in Sunday's win over Denver.

Analysis: Williamson is averaging almost 11 tackles per game over his last three contests. His 39 tackles through five weeks have him on pace for the most prolific season of his career. He and the Jets will host Andrew Luck and the Colts in Week 6.

Forces fumble Sunday

Williamson recorded nine tackles (six solo), a pass defensed and a forced fumble across 77 defensive snaps in Sunday's loss to the Jaguars.

Analysis: In a contest dominated by the Jaguars, Williamson was one of the lone bright spots on the Jets defense. The linebacker forced a fumble and tipped a pass that resulted in an interception. He was second on the team in tackles and played in 100 percent of the defensive snaps.

Shines in Week 3 loss

Williamson racked up 14 tackles (seven solo) and 1.5 sacks in Thursday's 21-17 loss to the Browns.

Analysis: Williamson was a monster in this one, constantly meeting running plays at the point of attack and wreaking havoc in the backfield when asked to in passing situations. He averaged 94 tackles per year in four seasons with the Titans prior to signing with the Jets this offseason, and the 26-year-old linebacker's on a 112-tackle pace through three contests with his new club.

Participates in practice Saturday

Williamson (undisclosed) was a full participant in Saturday's practice, Andy Vasquez of The Bergen Record reports.

Analysis: Williamson was held out of practice due to an undisclosed injury earlier this week, but appears to have gotten healthy. The 26-year-old is expected to suit up Monday against the Lions.

Not practicing Monday

Williamson (undisclosed) did not practice Monday, Connor Hughes of The Athletic reports.

Analysis: The reason for Williamson's absence remains relatively unknown. Look for more updates to come in the next few days, as the Jets are still a week away from their season opener against the Lions on Monday night.

Williamson signed a three-year, $22.5 million deal with the Jets on Friday, Darryl Slater of NJ.com reports.

Analysis: Williamson fills the Jets' middle linebacker void that was created when they let Demario Davis walk in free agency. The four-year pro has two seasons with over 100 tackles, but Williamson saw just 41 defensive snaps per game in 2017 and fell short with only 92 tackles. With a hefty pay day on deck and little competition surrounding him, expect Williamson to be a Week 1 starter.

Williamson is expected to sign a contract with the Jets, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Analysis: Williamson should slide in at starting inside linebacker for the Jets alongside Darron Lee, replacing the departing Demario Davis. The former fifth-round pick was one of the top inside linebackers on the market after totaling 92 tackles (52 solo), three sacks and two forced fumbles for the Titans in 2017.

Williamson capped the regular season with 11 tackles (five solo), along with a tackle for loss and a pass defensed in Sunday's playoff-clinching, 15-10 win over Jacksonville.

Analysis: Williamson brought his season total to 92 tackles with his second-best performance of the campaign in that category. Tennessee's strong interior linebacker play was often overlooked, but the Titans very likely would have missed the playoffs if not for excellent performances from Williamson and Wesley Woodyard. Williamson's turned out to be quite the find in the fifth round of the 2014 draft, as he's registered 376 tackles in his first four NFL seasons.

Williamson racked up six solo tackles and a sack in Sunday's 25-23 loss to the 49ers.

Analysis: Williamson and Wesley Woodyard form a dynamic duo at inside linebacker that's as effective as it is alliterative. Each of the two was able to sack quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo once in this one, and Williamson now has three sacks in the past four weeks. The 25-year-old Williamson also cleared the 75-tackle mark for the fourth consecutive season since being selected in the fifth round of the 2014 NFL Draft.
