Williams, who signed a one-year, $15 million deal after being cut by the Los Angeles Chargers and coming off a torn ACL, has had a solid start to the season, with eight catches for 120 yards through four games.
However, the Jets may need to move him to clear both cap space and a roster spot for Adams, whose reunion with quarterback Aaron Rodgers could significantly elevate their offense.
According to CBS Sports' Jonathan Jones, Williams is the "most likely player to be traded" if Adams joins the Jets.
Update:

The Jets could potentially trade WR Mike Williams if they acquire WR Davante Adams from the Raiders, according to multiple reports.
Adams’ long-standing connection with Rodgers—dating back to their prolific partnership in Green Bay—makes him a priority target for the Jets, as they aim to make a serious postseason push.
If Adams arrives, Williams could be the odd man out despite his encouraging early-season performances. The Jets' offense, currently ranked 18th in passing, would benefit from the instant chemistry between Rodgers and Adams, leaving Williams as a valuable trade asset for other teams seeking a veteran receiver.
I hope this isn’t true…
