New York Jets Flight Connections 1/5/22

Good morning, Gang Green Nation! I hope you’re all having a great start to the day. The Jets have officially put George Fant on the IR, ending what I would consider a good season stepping in for the injured Mekhi Becton this season. While the Jets offensive line had its struggles, Fant has provided exactly what he was expected to do when Joe Douglas went after him in 2020. That is, being an average to above-average swing tackle. As we saw this season, that’s all too important to have on a team. On top of that, it’s likely the Jets will be without rookie RB Michael Carter for the finale as well, as he suffered a concussion in Week 17 against the Bucs. As a UNC fan, I was ecstatic when Carter was drafted by the Jets, and he’s proven what I’ve expected all along. He’s looking like a piece of the puzzle moving forward. Hopefully that proves to be the case going ahead. With that, here are your links to the team to start your morning.
