New York Jet Quinnen Williams’ gun case was delayed due to scaled-back court operations amid the coronavirus outbreak, his attorney said.
Williams was scheduled to be arraigned March 25 on a desk appearance ticket, but the city has halted all non-urgent court proceedings due to the pandemic.
“The case is administratively adjourned,” said defense lawyer Alex Spiro. Williams hasn’t been given a new court date yet.
Williams, 22, was busted March 5 after allegedly trying to board a Delta flight from LaGuardia Airport with an unloaded Glock 19, according to the Queens DA’s Office.
“Mr. Williams respects and follows the law,” Spiro previously said in a statement to The Post. “There was allegedly a technical issue with the manner in which the lawfully owned firearm was stored — and we expect the matter to be resolved shortly.”
The 6-foot-3, 303-pound Jets defensive lineman has a gun permit in Alabama but not in New York, officials said.
Williams was drafted as the Jets’ No. 3 overall pick last year out of the University of Alabama.
