Last week, we discussed how the New York Jets finally began to fully unleash their best pass rusher, Bryce Huff. The Jets started trusting Huff to play on first and second down more often, which allowed him to log more pass-rush snaps for the relatively modest price of playing him against the run more frequently.
In the Week 4 game against Kansas City, Huff played 39% of the Jets’ defensive snaps, his highest percentage since the Jets moved him into a pass-rush specialist role at the start of the 2022 season. Huff maximized the opportunity by posting career-highs of seven total pressures and a 38.
