In his first appearance with the Green & White, veteran wideout Jermaine Kearse provided some significant contributions for a new offense looking to find its way in Buffalo. He finished with seven receptions in the Jets’ 21-12 loss to the Bills, tying for the second highest single-game output of his career.
Just nine days ago, the Jets acquired Kearse and a second-round pick from the Seahawks in exchange for DL Sheldon Richardson. Kearse jumped into the playbook of first-year offensive coordinator John Morton and responded well to the crash course. In the first half against the Bills, Kearse had four receptions and 38 of the team’s 85 total yards.
