Quinnen Williams, Cowboys

Williams comes to Dallas with a familiar face already on the sidelines. Cowboys defensive line coach Aaron Whitecotton spent time with Williams in New York. Whitecotton was the defensive line coach for the Jets from 2021 to 2024. Those years also happened to be when Williams earned all his Pro Bowl selections and his All-Pro season.
The Dallas Cowboys ' defense needed a hero following a 3-5-1 start to the 2025 season that was accentuated by a deflating 27-17 "Monday Night Football" loss against the Arizona Cardinals in Week 9. The absence of All-Pro edge rusher Micah Parsons following owner and general manager Jerry Jones' decision to trade him away to the Green Bay Packers a week before the 2025 has certainly been felt through the first half of the year.
