Although the New York Jets have a ton of things to clean up before Week 2, there was one big bright spot on Sunday afternoon—emphasis on big. Mekhi Becton was fantastic in his NFL debut against a solid edge rusher in Jerry Hughes.
Taking over the left tackle spot is a tall task for any rookie, but Becton was up to the challenge. Although the Jets still need to work out some kinks on the offensive line, Becton’s first game under the bright lights of the NFL was an encouraging sign for the future of the offense.
