Darrel Young at first wanted to make sure the Jets weren’t trying a fake with guys out of position.
Once he noticed that wasn’t the case, he saw something different: New York had just 10 men on the field late in the fourth quarter Sunday at MetLife Stadium.
And with no timeouts and already backed up well within their own five-yard line, the Jets decided to go for the punt.
“I came out and I looked at the structure of the punt team, and I was like, ‘Hey, they’ve got one guy short,’” Young said.
