After getting his feet wet as an NFL rookie, Jets CB Juston Burris is ready to jump into the deep end in Year 2.
“I want to come in here and compete for a starting spot,” he said before the team’s mandatory minicamp reached its conclusion. “Last year, they gave me that opportunity. But I didn’t completely do what I needed to do to do that. So this year, I’m coming in with the mindset that it’s my job to take.”
Burris, a fourth-round pick from NC State, appeared in all 16 games last season and ranked third on the team with six specials teams tackles.
