Jets defensive tackle Quinnen Williams had his felony gun charges dismissed in Queens Criminal Court on Monday morning, according to his attorney.

The charges stemmed from Williams’ March arrest for carrying a gun while attempting to board a flight at LaGuardia Airport. Williams’ hearing was supposed to be March 25, but it was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Williams’ attorney, Alex Spiro, maintained throughout that he expected the charges to be dropped.
