Jets Down To Third-String Left Tackle
3 years agoWith both New York Jets offensive tackles George Fant (knee) and Mekhi Becton (knee), who is on Injured Reserve, out for Week 15 against the Miami Dolphins, the Jets will be down to their third-string left tackle on Sunday. Becton hasn't played since Week 1 after having arthroscopic surgery on his knee, but the Jets are hopeful that he can return at some point this year. With both tackles out, Conor McDermott is likely to start this weekend on rookie quarterback Zach Wilson's blind side. Against an aggressive Dolphins defense that loves to get after the quarterback with exotic blitzes, Wilson's protection on Sunday is something to watch closely.
