Jason Pinnock hits like he has been playing safety for a lot longer than 14 months.
“It’s always been speed for me,” Pinnock said. “Being a defensive back, you have to bring speed and know angles. Speed is going to overpower the power.” “It was literally like that Jamal Adams [key card] video: This s–t just stopped working!” Pinnock said, referencing a clip in which the former Jets star is locked out of the team facility and jokes that Year 2 is too soon to be cut. “This league will humble you. Every guy plays with a little chip on his shoulder, but [proving the Jets wrong] is not forefront on my mind.
“You can’t replace really good players,” head coach Brian Daboll said, “but I think Pinnock has done an excellent job of fitting into our defense. The defensive coaches have used him the right way, whether it’s in the deep part of the field, down in the box or blitzing. He’s so explosive. He’s got strength, power and good speed. He can bring it.”
