Jets Part Ways With Isaiah Williams, Sign LB Mykal Walker

In a move that most expected to happen much earlier in the week, the Jets have moved on from wide receiver/kick returner Isaiah Williams following a disastrous performance last week. Called on for his first action as a Jet, Williams lost a fumble on kick returns and then called for a fair catch on a punt at the 2-yard-line.

We’ve signed LB Mykal Walker and waived WR Isaiah Williams.

We’ve also elevated S Dean Clark and RB Avery Williams for #DALvsNYJ

Linebacker Mykal Williams was signed to take Williams’ roster spot and safety Dean Clark was elevated along with running back Avery Williams. With Braelon Allen landing on IR, adding another back in Williams makes sense for Gang Green on game day.
