The primary week of Jets coaching camp is within the books and there have been a couple of standout performers value noting amongst each starters and backups. We’ll know extra as soon as the Jets open up their preseason schedule on August fifteenth towards the Bucs, however let’s check out a handful of gamers who’re making waves now.
CB Azareye’h Thomas:
The second-year nook who flashed in twelve video games (5 begins) final season has been talked about a number of instances in current days for his sticky protection on star receiver Garrett Wilson. The Jets cornerback group ought to be some of the aggressive place teams on the roster and Thomas will probably be given each probability to win a beginning job. Additionally value mentioning that Brandon Stephens has additionally been delivering a number of spectacular reps early on.
S Dane Belton:
Belton has earned loads of reward from head coach Aaron Glenn who has lauded Belton’s strategy and the very fact the he’s enjoying in every single place on protection. Count on Belton to be a core particular teamer and to discover a option to get loads of reps on protection in a wide range of roles.
I’ve been impressed with Chip Trayanum, who was an UDFA. He has damaged off quite a lot of good runs all through coaching camp.
RB Chip Trayanum:
Trayanum is the one undrafted free agent on the record and has solely emerged in current days with Isaiah Davis nursing a knee damage. The highly effective again may have a really troublesome time making this roster but when he will get sufficient run within the preseason, he could not give the Jets a lot of a alternative.
TE Jelani Woods:
We talked about Woods as a man who might steal a roster spot previous to the beginning of camp and he was the primary identify quarterback Geno Smith talked about yesterday when requested who has stood out to him up so far. With Kenyon Sadiq attributable to miss a bit of time after an damage setback, Woods has had his quantity referred to as and carried out nicely in current days.
WR Arian Smith:
Outdoors of a drop he had within the first days of camp, we’ve now seen Smith talked about on a number of events for having made contested catches down the sphere. This was clearly a problem for Smith each in school and in restricted reps final season. If he can handle to wash up his drops, he could possibly be an impressive fourth or fifth receiver.
Glenn was Born within the Bronx, New York and has adopted the Jets religiously regardless of being stationed in a number of totally different international locations and time zones around the globe. He now resides in England and has been a JetNation member since 2005. Glenn will bleed inexperienced with the remainder of us by the highs and lows.
