FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- The 1985 Chicago Bears, the 2013 Seattle Seahawks and ... the 2023 New York Jets? When it comes to great defenses, Jets cornerback D.J. Reed believes his unit is good enough to be mentioned among the best in NFL history.
"I'm very confident," Reed said Monday on a Zoom call with reporters. "I think we have the potential to be the best defense in the NFL. Honestly, I think we can be historical, not just the best defense in the league, but I think we can be a historical defense like the '85-'86 Bears and the LOB (Seahawks' Legion of Boom) in 2013.
