Cowboys owner\/general manager Jerry Jones was among the fans excited by what Williams displayed at Allegiant Stadium.<\/p>\n<p class=\"body-text-paragraph\">\u201cI was zeroed in on him early and I wanted to see how the Raider offensive line was handling him. It kind of caused you to sit back in your seat and smile a little bit. He was so dominant,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.audacy.com\/podcast\/shan-and-rj-f2a8d\/episodes\/jerry-jones-show-111825-5f3c9\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" title=\"https:\/\/www.audacy.com\/podcast\/shan-and-rj-f2a8d\/episodes\/jerry-jones-show-111825-5f3c9\">Jones told 105.3 The Fan (KRLD-FM) on Tuesday. <\/a>\u201cI have not, again, looked at the film on the way in, but I\u2019m telling you, if we can get those kinds of plays and people have to adjust their blocking schemes for him, then you obviously get some advantages in other parts of your defense.<\/p>\n<p class=\"body-text-paragraph\">\u201cWe just haven\u2019t had pressure like that \u2014 pass pressure. When you can be sound against that run and then get some pressure, too, and it\u2019s coming from a bad spot for the quarterback, up the middle. We haven\u2019t had that.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Cowboys<\/p>\n<p class=\"dmnc_features-cta-social-article-cta-social-module__3beff secondaryRoman secondaryRoman-20 text-center text-gray-dark\">Be the smartest Cowboys fan.

While Williams celebrated on the field, the ESPN broadcast shifted focus toward a smiling Jones up in a suite.<\/p>\n<p class=\"body-text-paragraph\">Williams wasn\u2019t the only defensive player to capture Jones\u2019 attention. The Cowboys owner said he liked what he saw from returning defenders like DeMarvion Overshown and Malik Hooker.<\/p>\n<p class=\"body-text-paragraph\">Jones also emphasized the importance of establishing a strong interior pass rushing presence.<\/p>\n<p class=\"body-text-paragraph\">\u201cI think that it\u2019s harder. You can vary ways to get some space pressure. You can vary that and you can use guys that are not necessarily prototypes for size out there to get some pressure,\u201d Jones said. \u201cBut in the middle, it takes not only strength and size, in my mind, but it also takes that unique big guy that can really tie up two blockers and give a chance to touch that quarterback. Those are hard to find.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"body-text-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.audacy.com\/podcast\/shan-and-rj-f2a8d\/episodes\/jerry-jones-show-111825-5f3c9\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" title=\"https:\/\/www.audacy.com\/podcast\/shan-and-rj-f2a8d\/episodes\/jerry-jones-show-111825-5f3c9\">Listen to the rest of Jones\u2019 radio appearance here.<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"body-text-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dallasnews.com\/sports\/cowboys\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Find more Cowboys coverage from The Dallas Morning News here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Quinnen Williams wasted no time making an impact in his Dallas Cowboys debut.
