New York Jets fans across the globe jumped for joy when Garrett Wilson hauled in a perfectly placed touchdown pass from Aaron Rodgers against the Giants. It felt like a sneak peek of exciting things to come over the next few months.
The Jets’ offense has received plenty of attention for its expected turnaround, highlighted by the excellence of Wilson and Rodgers during their brief appearance in the preseason finale. However, the offense is not the only unit that showed signs of potentially remarkable improvement throughout the preseason. Jets fans should be thrilled about what the team showed in another phase of the game, too.
