What does the surprising 3-4 defense mean for the New York Jets?

In what should be considered surprising news, Brian Costello of the New York Post has reported that the New York Jets will continue to operate out of a base 3-4 defensive scheme in 2019.

This comes on the heels of new defensive coordinator Gregg Williams being hired just last month, a move that was met with widespread praise from the majority of the fanbase. Williams has coached almost exclusively 4-3 defenses during his time as a coach in the NFL making this move a bit of a head-scratcher.

Regardless, the coaching staff seemingly believes that the personnel on the roster is still best fit for a 3-4 defense.
