2024 Season Outlooks

Once a prominent breakout candidate with pockets of gaudy stats sprinkled throughout his career, Williams will attempt to come back from a torn ACL with the Jets. Questions about his availability after suffering the injury last September have circulated this offseason without a concrete timetable given out by the Jets. Even if he's ready by this preseason, he's unlikely to unseat Garrett Wilson as the top target getter in New York and might struggle for consistent looks from week to week because of guys like Breece Hall and rookie Malachi Corley. There's modest appeal in drafting Williams with a pick after Round 10 -- if he plays well then he's a steal, and if he struggles to begin the year, he could potentially be cut for someone else.

This is Williams' first season with the Jets after spending his first seven NFL seasons with the Chargers. Williams offers a much-needed boost to a team that struggled with Allen Lazard and Xavier Gipson as their next-best WRs behind Garrett Wilson. Despite suffering a torn ACL in September 2023, Williams is expected to be fully recovered by the start of the 2024 season. The 29-year-old has maintained an average of 7.7 targets and 14.8 fantasy points per game over the past three seasons. With Aaron Rodgers at quarterback, Williams should see enough targets to warrant consideration as a boom/bust flex option in 2024.
