Cowboys acquire DT Williams in trade with Jets

The Dallas Cowboys have acquired three-time Pro Bowl defensive tackle Quinnen Williams from the New York Jets in a trade. The deal sees the Cowboys sending a second-round pick in 2026, a first-round pick in 2027, and defensive tackle Mazi Smith to the Jets in exchange for Williams. Williams, a 25-year-old former first-round draft pick, has been a standout performer for the Jets since joining the team in 2019. He has been selected to the Pro Bowl three times and is considered one of the best defensive tackles in the NFL. The trade is a significant move for the Cowboys, as they look to bolster their defensive line and improve their overall defensive performance. The addition of Williams is expected to have a significant impact on the team's defensive unit. The Jets, on the other hand, have acquired a significant amount of draft capital in the deal, which could be used to address other areas of need on their roster.
