FLORHAM PARK, N.J. — Quinnen Williams changed his diet, workout regimen and just about everything else in his life and returned to the Jets leaner and hungry to show he can be the dominant player he was in college.

Williams said he a did a lot of self-evaluating after his rookie season. The No. 3 pick out of Alabama in 2019, Williams had just 2.5 sacks in 13 games and never had the impact that was expected of him.
