Who doesn’t love a great New York Jets underdog story?
The rise of Quincy Williams is especially sweet for Jets fans because he was a castaway from the Jacksonville Jaguars. John Franklin-Myers’ ascent to a stalwart defender means more because he was picked up off waivers. Keeping Bryce Huff is that much more of a priority because he was an undrafted free agent who became a star out of nowhere.
Many fans want to turn Xavier Gipson into the next feel-good story. They watched on Hard Knocks as he fought for his roster spot and exulted with him when his dream came true.
