Undrafted Barnes Impressive in Jets Debut

There weren’t many bright spots in the Jets pre-season opening 23-3 loss to the Detroit Lions in which the Jets starting defense allowed two long scoring drives and no offensive personnel group managed to get the ball in the end zone for Gang Green.

Even still, the game wasn’t without any strong individual efforts for the Jets as undrafted free agent Deion Barnes had a solid showing in his pro debut.

A Penn State product, Barnes checks in at 6′ 4”, 255 lbs and was scooped up by the Jets immediately after the draft.
