FLORHAM PARK, N.J. – Denzel Mims only played three snaps in Week 1. The second-year receiver may see even less action Sunday.
The Jets activated slot receiver Jamison Crowder from the COVID-19 list Thursday and Keelan Cole continues to progress after a knee issue sidelined him for Week 1. Without them, Mims played the fewest reps of the Jets’ five receivers active against Carolina.
Offensive coordinator Mike LaFleur said one reason was because the Jets never really got into a rhythm. LaFleur plans to rotate receivers to keep them fresh. But Mims’ spot in the rotation is very much in doubt.
