If the Jets were not in the market for a QB, the search for an offensive tackle is all we’d all be talking about.
INDIANAPOLIS — While the identity of the Jets starting quarterback in 2023 remains a mystery, general manager Joe Douglas needs to figure out who will be protecting that mystery QB.
“As I’ve said before, O line/D line are going to be a high priority for us, always. If there’s an opportunity to upgrade tackle, center, guard, D-tackle, D-end, we’re always going to look at doing that.” But Becton has impressed the Jets with his commitment of late. He changed agents and it has made a difference. He stayed in New Jersey and has been diligent about his nutrition and workouts, according to sources. Becton has even posted photos to social media that show his slimmed-down physique.
“I haven’t had those discussions,” Douglas said. “I don’t think coach has had those discussions with Duane yet. Obviously, for him to do what he did last year, to play with the injury that he played with … I don’t think we can find a documented tackle that played with the injury that he had for an entire year. It’s a special thing. I know we hold him in very high regard as a person and a player. We’ll let him recover a little bit and we’ll have those discussions as the offseason progresses.
