Of this group, the Jets are reportedly signing Goodson and Morstead to contracts.
Williamson, 29, was a fifth-round pick of the Titans back in 2014. He played out his rookie contract with Tennessee before agreeing to a three-year, $22.5 million contract that includes $16 million guaranteed with the Jets.
Williams suffered a season-ending ACL tear in 2019, then agreed to a pay cut that reduced his 2020 salary to $3.5 million for the 2020 season.
The Jets traded Williamson a 2022 seventh-round pick to the Steelers for a 2022 fifth-round pick.
In 2020, Williamson appeared in 15 games for the Jets and Steelers, recording 120 tackles, one sack, one interception and three passes defended.
