"Williams injured his ankle on the Jets' opening drive when he collided with teammate Christian Barmore. The standout defensive tackle was clearly in pain, hobbling off the field before going down the locker room for further evaluation. Shortly after, Williams was able to return to game action, but he remained in the locker room for the entirety of the second half."
"Mike Vrabel also hinted in his postgame press conference that Williams might have played in the second half had the situation been different. "I made a decision that we felt like we should probably just start treating that thing and get ahead of it and see where he's at here tomorrow, the next couple of days and try to weigh,""
Milton Williams collided with teammate Christian Barmore on the Jets' opening drive and injured his ankle, later being evaluated in the locker room. The injury is being treated as a high ankle sprain that could sideline him for multiple weeks. Williams returned briefly to game action but spent the entire second half in the locker room and was seen in good spirits after the Patriots' 27-14 win. Coach Mike Vrabel decided to remove Williams to begin treatment and monitor him over the next few days. Williams has recorded 27 total tackles and 3.5 sacks this season, and his absence would be a blow to the Patriots' defense.
