Quinnen Williams, Sauce Gardner Earn Back-to-Back Pro Bowl Nods
While the Jets have had a terrible 2023 season as a team, a pair of their young superstars made the pro-bowl for the second season in a row in defensive lineman Quinnen Williams and cornerback Sauce Gardner.

The pair of elite defenders got the nod while Williams’ brother Quincy was one of the biggest snubs in the league.
Gardner has been so good in coverage of late that teams have essentially stopped throwing the football in his direction. Over the second half of the season, Gardner has allowed just eight receptions.

Meanwhile, Williams has been a handful for opposing offenses all year. And while his sack production is down, that has as much to do with increased opportunities for Jermaine Johnson and Bryce Huff than anything Williams has (or hasn’t) done.
