New York Jets Flight Connections 8/5/19

Good morning, Gang Green Nation! I hope you’re all having a great start to the day. As always, shout out to Mr. Wells for holding down the fort over the weekend. Over the weekend was the introduction ceremonies for the most recent Hall of Fame class, in which former Jets’ Kevin Mawae, Ty Law, and Ed Reed were introducted. Although only Mawae was a staple on the team, it’s cool to note that 3 of the inductees actually played for the team at some point.

In unrelated news, it seems that although the Jets have managed to upgrade both the offense and defense, special teams could now become a pretty big concern. For a team that had two Pro Bowl players there last year, it’s not a great thing to see. Special teams is easily the most underrated side of the ball (probably due to all the rule changes), but it is equally as important, if not more of an advantage if you have a good ST squad. As of right now Jets Kicker Chandler Catanzaro has reportedly been struggling in training camp, and although reports are stating a number of people are ‘stepping up’ as a returner, there isn’t anyone who has really caught the attention of the team yet. Perhaps we will have more clarity as the pre-season continues. With that, here are your links to the team to start your Monday off.
