The Jets as a team and organization have made many head-scratching decisions this year, but one of their best moves was something general manager Joe Douglas didn’t do.

He rebuffed teams that called and tried to acquire defensive tackle Quinnen Williams at the trade deadline.

There were reports that the Jets were looking to move Williams as part of their fire sale and collect even more draft capital for their seemingly never-ending rebuild.
