Williams wants to be the one his teammates turn to when not everything goes well and he believes he can be a “vocal leader” on offense.<\/p>\n
“If I was in a burning building, boop, boop, boop (dialing a phone), ‘Hey I need you to come to get me.’ He’s on the way,” Jefferson said. “I mean just to put it bluntly like that and he’s a heartbeat on offense.”<\/p>\n
In practice, Glenn said he’s a player that “demands respect,” and there’s no surprise about how he’s performed up to this point in camp.<\/p>\n
“I guess from the outside in, everybody looks at him as a special teams player but man, there’s room for him in our offense and there’s a number of things he can do for our offense,” Glenn said. “He’s a dude.”<\/p>\n
Regardless of his role, Williams wants to be trusted \u2014 “Whatever they need from me, I’m willing to do it,” he said.<\/p>\n
As for those splash plays, that’s just his competitive side breaking through the surface.<\/p>\n
“It’s just Isaiah being Isaiah,” Banjo said. “I think he’s just a sign and a very great symbol of what an ultimate competitor looks like.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Williams wants to be the one his teammates turn to when not everything goes well and he believes…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":322500,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[116901,30704,85,9,11,10,12,63749,116580],"class_list":["post-322499","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-new-york","tag-best-of-ny-jets","tag-isaiah-williams","tag-latest-headlines","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-headlines","tag-new-york-news","tag-news","tag-training-camp","tag-training-camp-features"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/322499","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=322499"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/322499\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/322500"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=322499"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=322499"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=322499"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
