New York Jets Flight Connections 08/07/22

Good morning, Gang Green Nation! The Jets held their annual Green and White scrimmage yesterday. Now we move on to the preseason games. First up is a game against the Philadelphia Eagles in just five days. We probably won’t see much action from the starters in that one. 10 days later, however, comes the second game, against the Atlanta Falcons. For Jets fans eager to get a good look at the team likely to take the field when the games count, this is the one to focus on. The starters should get a good deal of action against the Falcons. Six days after that the preseason concludes with the annual Scrub Bowl, this year against the New York Giants. Then on to final cuts and preparations for the regular season opener against the Baltimore Ravens.

Even though it feels like we just started training camp, in just three short weeks it will all be over. It’s already getting late for those on the roster bubble to make a good impression. Things go by in the blink of an eye. Every practice, every scrimmage, every drill counts as the Jets begin to whittle down the possibilities to stick with the team during the regular season. For a fortunate few bubble guys, a spot with the team awaits. For others a practice squad slot promises to keep the dream alive for a little longer. And for many, these are the last days of their NFL dreams. Such is life on the fringes of professional sports.
