Tyler Conklin Makes The Most Of Offseason Reps

New York Jets tight end Tyler Conklin seized the majority of the repetitions at tight end during offseason practices because of the absences of C.J. Uzomah and Jeremy Ruckert.

Zach Wilson Didn't Impress At OTAs

It's still early in the offseason, but The Athletic's Connor Hughes writes that New York Jets second-year quarterback Zach Wilson wasn't overly impressive through four media-open organized team activity practices.

Jason Pinnock Looks Like He Belongs

The New York Jets drafted Jason Pinnock as a cornerback in the fifth round last year but converted him to safety toward the end of 2021 out of necessity.

Greg Zuerlein, Eddy Pineiro Not Impressing

The New York Jets kicking competition between Greg Zuerlein and Eddy Pineiro this offseason has been "neck and neck," according to special teams coordinator Brant Boyer, but it's mainly because neither kicker has impressed all that much. The Jets brought in Greg the Leg this offseason after Pineiro made all 17 of his kicks in […]

Ashtyn Davis Looks Significantly Improved

New York Jets safety Ashtyn Davis was viewed as a developmental player when he was taken in the third round in 2020.

I just felt like I left a lot […]

Philadelphia Eagles running back Miles Sanders is searching for more consistency heading into the 2022 season, as he's had his fair share of injuries over the last two years.

Duke Johnson Competing With Zack Moss

Buffalo Bills running back Duke Johnson's roster security likely depends on how Zack Moss plays this summer at training camp, but Johnson's experience and relative success in the NFL could help him stick if Moss falters. Johnson had two 100-yard games with the Miami Dolphins last year and offers more explosiveness in the receiving game […]

Taiwan Jones On The Bubble

Buffalo Bills running back Taiwan Jones was a favorite of former special teams coordinator Heath Farwell, but Jones may not have the roster certainty that he's enjoyed the last two years. He has participated in all four phases of the kick and return units, but he's also entering his age-34 season. The Bills might look […]

Zack Moss Could Be A Trade Candidate

Buffalo Bills running back Zack Moss had a chance to take control of the backfield last year, but instead he allowed Devin Singletary to become the lead back.
