This offseason, the New York Jets have two kickers that will battle it out in training camp all summer long. Kicker Taylor Bertolet will be going up against veteran Cairo Santos for the starting job but in the grand scheme of things, he has the odds against him.
Santos has a big advantage over Bertolet as he has more experience by far. In two years of being in the NFL, he’s yet to start a single game so right off the bat, he’s on the outside looking in. Ideally, Santos on paper gives the Jets a better skill-set but that’s the beauty of training camp.
