Mazi Smith Joins New York Jets as Part of Quinnen Williams Trade

Defensive tackle Mazi Smith has been traded from the Dallas Cowboys to the New York Jets. Smith was included in the package sent to the Jets in exchange for All-Pro defensive tackle Quinnen Williams. The full compensation for Williams also involved a 2026 second-round pick and the higher of the Cowboys' two first-round picks in 2027. Smith will now join the Jets' defensive unit as the team appears to be undergoing a significant roster rebuild, following multiple high-profile trades on Tuesday.
