Gregg Williams not worried about Jets' injury issues at cornerback

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. – Gregg Williams isn’t worried about the Jets’ injuries at cornerback and won’t give into the widespread belief that it’s their weakest link.

The Jets defensive coordinator, as confident a coach as you will ever meet, said his unit will be fine. That’s because the fiery Willams believes in himself andwhat he and his coaches are preaching and teaching, and he has faith in the players.

Williams, who has coached had five top-five defenses, is known for mixing up coverages, using different personnel groupings and devising schemes that cause fits for opposing coaches. New Jets offensive line coach Frank Pollack said when he first met Williams, he told him he’s “a pain in the [butt] to gameplan for,” and he’s happy to be in the same building with him.
