First-round choice Mekhi Becton has actually been a standout, but he suffered a shoulder injury against the Colts on Sunday and was expected to be limited, if able to play at all, on Thursday versus the Broncos.
Joe Douglas first draft class as GM is off to a very sluggish start, mostly due to injuries. Of the nine gamers prepared, 5 have actually not played in a game, 4 of them since of injury.
There have actually been lots of slow starts around the Jets this season, from their offense to their defense to practically whatever.
Here is an appearance at how each rookie has actually fared so far:
CB Bryce Hall (Round 5, 158th pick overall).
WR Denzel Mims (Round 2, 59th choice overall).
Clark suffered a knee injury in training school and has actually spent the first 4 weeks of the season on IR. He is eligible to come off at any point.
Hall is still recovering from a serious ankle injury that ended his season at Virginia last year. The Jets positioned him on the non-football injury list, which suggests he has to remain at least the first 6 weeks.
P Braden Mann (Round 6, 191st pick general).
QB James Morgan (Round 4, 125th choice overall).
Zuniga hurt his quad and missed out on all of training school. He has been on IR all season but is now eligible to come off. He is most likely going to need some time before he plays, though, with all of this missed practice time.
OT Mekhi Becton (Round 1, 11th choice overall).
RB LaMical Perine (Round 4, 120th choice overall).
Jets fans have actually been bemoaning the absence of deep shots the team has taken. Part of the reason the Jets havent is since Mims has not been on the field. The Jets thought the pass receiver from Baylor would give their offense a deep-ball dimension, but he has been not able to get on the field. Mims injured one hamstring prior to the start of training camp. He missed out on almost all of camp. He then returned to practice on a restricted basis before Week 1 and hurt the other hamstring. That landed him on IR. He is qualified to come off for next weeks game versus the Cardinals. The Jets could utilize his speed.
Bectons only concern at the moment is a shoulder injury that caused him to leave the Colts game early and had his status for the Broncos video game in doubt. The Jets do not think it is a serious injury, so any lack should not be a long one. When he showed up for training camp, the coaches were impressed with how prepared he was.
The Jets do not believe it is a major injury, so any lack should not be a long one. Part of the factor the Jets havent is because Mims has not been on the field. The Jets believed the large receiver from Baylor would offer their offense a deep-ball dimension, but he has actually been unable to get on the field. Ashtyn Davis gets tackled in the Jets opener against the Bills.APDavis has been used primarily as a kick returner. Perine is explosive and might be a helpful piece in the Jets offense.
OL Cameron Clark (Round 4, 129th pick overall).
Perine missed the first game of the season with a sprained ankle, however played in the next two. He has 10 carries for 41 backyards. Perine is explosive and could be a helpful piece in the Jets offense.
DL Jabari Zuniga (Round 3, 79th choice overall).
Ashtyn Davis gets dealt with in the Jets opener versus the Bills.APDavis has actually been utilized generally as a kick returner. He has two returns for 43 yards and one inexpedient difficulty against the Bills. Davis played defense against the 49ers and it did not work out. He was one of the perpetrators on the 80-yard touchdown run by Raheem Mostert on the first play of the game. He got shut out of the play. Davis hurt his groin and missed both the Colts and Broncos video games.
The 6-foot-7, 370-pounder has actually been impressive in the first couple of video games of his career. PFF has him graded as one of the best novices regardless of position.
Mann is getting used plenty with the method this offense is playing. He has actually punted 16 times, tied for the most in the league, and is balancing 44.4 lawns per punt.
James Morgan at Jets practicefor the NY POSTMorgan has actually been non-active for each video game. This is a redshirt year for him.
S Ashtyn Davis (Round 3, 68th choice overall).
