As the trade deadline approaches, the New York Jets somehow made a move that is just as big as trading Sauce Gardner. The Dallas Cowboys, who’ve been making calls all day, finally landed Quinnen Williams. Their defense received a huge boost with the addition of the 27-year-old defensive tackle, one that fans have plenty to say about.
Fans Stunned At Jets Fire Sale As Quinnen Williams Heads To Dallas
For Cowboys fans, this is one of the best days in the world. After trading Micah Parsons prior to the season, they now have the Jets’ 2019 NFL Draft’s No. 3 overall pick. Williams has 40 career sacks, and he already has 32 total tackles in eight games this season. In the 2024 season, he had 37 total tackles in 16 games.
“This is the craziest trade deadline in recent history,” one fan wrote. Usually, most of the trades are common knowledge. Fans think they had their eye on a few key names this season, but the Jets decided to change things up. After their second blockbuster move of the day, they’ve left fans speechless.

Chiefs fans have their eye on another Jets player, “My goodness. Please just trade Breece Hall (to the Chiefs) while you’re at it.” Hall remains the key piece that New York has yet to trade, though he remains on a few teams’ radar.

One fan wrote, “Jets selling their whole team to load up on first round picks for a dogs*** quarterback draft class.” The 2026 draft class is full of quarterbacks, though many are concerned as to whether or not they’ll be franchise players. Another fan chimed in with a meme that says, “Well it’s a Jets rebuild… again.”

“Aight man… Send Wilson to Denver already,” this individual added. With fans of all teams begging for trades to occur, Jets fans have gone through it all.

Cowboys fans are through the moon, “Ya’ll clowning Jerry Jones and he grabs Quinnen Williams,” someone wrote with a laughing emoji. Clearly, they believe Jones shouldn’t be clowned on anymore.

Jones was praised by another fan who included the chef emoji, “Jerry Jones cooking right now.”
With the addition of Williams, the Cowboys’ defense received a considerable boost. Currently, they have an F in PFSN’s Defensive Impact. Williams will look to change that as he has plenty of time to get familiar with the team before their next game on November 17.
