The Jets made a huge change this week, benching starting quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick in favor of Geno Smith. But it might not be the only changes they make.
Coach Todd Bowles has said several times this week that he may make changes on defense as well. He would not reveal any personnel changes yet, but he said he is working different players at practice and could make lineup moves.
“I kind of want to see how the matchups look later in the week,” Bowles said. “Everyone’s getting reps and I’ll decide who goes where.”
Bowles’ search for answers is an indication of how disappointing the defense has been this season.
