Jets WR Mike Williams (personal reasons) misses second practice
East Rutherford, NJ -- September 29 -- Mike Williams of the Jets made this catch in the first half as the Denver Broncos edged the New York Jets 10-9 at MetLife Stadium. New York Jets wide receiver Mike Williams sat out for the second straight day of practice for what the team is calling personal reasons.
Williams, 30, signed with the Jets for one year and $10 million during free agency but has seen few opportunities in the passing game. That's likely to continue to be the case after the Jets acquired star receiver Davante Adams to join Garrett Wilson and Allen Lazard.
According to The Athletic, several teams have called the Jets about working a trade for Williams. NFL Network reported that Williams was in the team facility Thursday after staying home Wednesday.
In six games (two starts), Williams has caught 10 passes on 17 targets for 145 yards and no touchdowns. He was a deep threat for the Los Angeles Chargers from 2017 through 2023, when he caught 309 passes for 4,806 yards and 31 touchdowns, adding one rushing touchdown. He led the NFL in yards per reception (20.4) in 2019.
Quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who missed Wednesday's walkthrough while resting an ankle injury, was a full participant on Thursday. Cornerbacks D.J. Reed (groin) and Michael Carter II (back) have missed two straight days of practice.
