The way most NFL coaches treated the preseason, it would be easy to conclude it doesn’t really matter unless you’re a rookie or a free agent trying to make the team. Any player of substance hardly touched the field until the first game of the regular season.
Jets running back Le’Veon Bell and center Ryan Kalil didn’t see any preseason snaps, and their lack of activity played a part in the dismal performance of the offense in a 17-16 loss to the Bills last Sunday. A week later, Kalil is confident there will be improvement along the offensive line when the Jets play the Browns on Monday night at MetLife Stadium.
