Overview

  • Quincy Williams agreed to a two-year contract worth up to $17 million, per multiple reports.
  • The addition comes after Devin Bush left for the Bears on a three-year, $30 million contract following a breakout 2025 season.
  • Williams was a first-team All-Pro in 2023 with the Jets under then–linebackers coach Mike Rutenberg but logged 83 tackles and a 45.5 PFF grade in 2025.
  • He is expected to assume Bush’s role next to Carson Schwesinger in the Browns’ linebacker group.
  • Analysts view the move as a calculated value play with risk, grading it between C+ and B+, as Cleveland manages cap priorities after also signing guard Zion Johnson.
