New York Jets star defensive tackle Quinnen Williams will be out one to two weeks with a strained left calf, head coach Aaron Glenn confirmed Friday.

The three-time Pro Bowler sustained the injury during positional drills Thursday and did not participate in Friday’s training camp session at Florham Park, N.J.

“We want to make sure this player is going to be good,” Glenn said. “We know what he’s all about. We know what he can do. And listen, we want to hold him out and we’ll see how that goes.”

Williams, 27, started 16 games last season and contributed 37 tackles, 18 quarterback hits and 6.0 sacks.

Glenn said sidelining Williams is “precautionary” and noted that he missed one game in 2022 with a calf injury.

“He understands exactly how you have to operate and make sure he goes through the process of getting healed,” Glenn said. “He’ll be just fine.”

Williams earned All-Pro first-team honors in 2022 and signed a four-year, $96 million extension ahead of the 2023 season.

He has 39.0 sacks, 98 QB hits, 290 tackles, five forced fumbles, three fumble recoveries and one interception in 90 games (86 starts) since New York drafted him with the No. 3 overall pick in 2019.

The Jets’ first preseason game is Aug. 9 at Green Bay. They open the regular season at home against their former quarterback Aaron Rodgers and the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sept. 7.
