Jets inside linebacker Darron Lee, their first-round draft pick this year, made his return Sunday, in a 9-6 loss to the Rams, from a sprained ankle that sidelined him for three games.
But Lee didn't play a ton — just 13 of 68 snaps. Julian Stanford continued to get the bulk of the action next to middle linebacker David Harris. Stanford played 51 snaps, while Harris played all 68 snaps.
In the final six games of this miserable 3-7 season, the Jets figure to get Lee more involved, as they look toward the future.
