Florida defensive end Jabari Zuniga wants to make up for lost time and prove he’s one of the best players from this draft class.
Zuniga, whom the Jets took in the third round with the 79th overall pick Friday night, played only six games in the 2019 season because of an ankle injury. It definitely affected his draft stock, but he believes he can make an impact with the Jets.
“I definitely consider myself the steal of the draft,” Zuniga said. “I definitely can do a lot on the football field. I’ll show that next year.”
Zuniga was productive when healthy.
