How Jets' Kevin Greene plans to fix Lorenzo Mauldin

FLORHAM PARK -- Through two seasons, Jets outside linebacker Lorenzo Mauldin hasn't exactly been a disruptive pass rusher. After showing signs of potential in 2015, with four sacks, he had just 2.5 sacks last year.

But now, Mauldin's new position coach is one of the NFL's best ever pass rushers -- Kevin Greene. And Greene has a plan to get more out of Mauldin. He wants Mauldin -- and all his outside linebackers -- to play with a more powerful style, rather than relying on finesse.

And the message is getting through to Mauldin.
