That was never more of a consideration than this year, with the salary cap decreasing by, for now, $18 million. That's the first time the cap has gone down, which is due to lost revenues caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.(AP Photo/Jason Behnken, File)

Jets’ Williams in sack drought, but has ‘hidden production’

FILE - In this Nov. 26, 2017, file photo, New York Jets defensive end Leonard Williams (92) and cornerback Morris Claiborne (21) celebrate during the second half of the team's NFL football game against the Carolina Panthers in East Rutherford, N.J. Williams has just two sacks this season, but he has a whopping 26 quarterback hits. That means he's getting quarterbacks off their spots, forcing throws and making them downright uncomfortable. &quot;People want to see the sacks,&quot; Williams acknowledged Thursday, Dec. 7. &quot;I wouldn't really call a QB hit a stat or anything. I just think of it as being disruptive. That's what a defensive player wants to do, is be disruptive in any way possible. &quot;No matter what type of stat it is, if you're being disruptive, that's a good defensive play.&quot; (AP Photo/Bill Kostroun, File)
