Can Jets' Buster Skrine, Marcus Williams handle teams throwing often at them?

Last season, Antonio Cromartie had the role of the Jets' "other" cornerback — the guy who isn't Darrelle Revis.

For years, quarterbacks have thrown away from Revis, and at that other cornerback. With the Jets cutting Cromartie this offseason, Buster Skrine and Marcus Williams now step into that "other" role.

Daylon McCutcheon, the Jets' assistant defensive backs coach, isn't concerned with how Skrine and Williams will handle quarterbacks throwing often in their direction.

"The one thing about Marcus and the one thing about Buster is that those guys challenge everyone and they love competition," McCutcheon said.
