News broke from the team on Friday that New York Jets’ star linebacker Avery Williamson will miss the entire 2019 season with a torn ACL. Williamson was a leader and the play-caller for the Jets defense. His presence will be missed in the middle of the field.
The Jets signed Williamson to a three-year, $22.5 million deal in the 2018 offseason. In his first season with New York, he posted Pro Bowl worthy numbers: 120 tackles, one interception, three sacks, and six pass break-ups.
Williamson was growing as a leader and a player with Gang Green.
