New York Jets Flight Connections 6/8/21

Good morning, Gang Green Nation! I hope you’re all having a great start to the day. With the Jets drafting Elijah Moore and signing Corey Davis in free agency, Denzel Mims has become somewhat of an afterthought. While I believe Mims could fit well in this system, his inability to stay healthy is starting to become a cause for concern. Mims missed a decent chunk of the 2020 season, and played the rest of it clearly hobbled. This year, he’s now missed the first part of OTAs due to injury, something that the new coaching staff can’t be happy about. When a player is drafted from a previous regime, unless they are elite, they are under a much larger microscope compared to their peers. If Mims isn’t able to get it together by the time training camp starts, there’s a real chance his days in green and white could be numbered sooner than later. With that, here are your links to the Jets to start your morning.
