For all the talk about the New York Jets’ offensive struggles and defensive inconsistencies, the most complete part of this team might be the one nobody’s talking about — special teams.
What Chris Banjo has built in his first year as coordinator borders on elite. The Jets have quietly assembled the best special teams unit in the NFL under Banjo's guidance, and the former NFL safety deserves plenty of credit.
This is Banjo's first year as a special teams coordinator after spending the last two seasons as an assistant in Denver. Three years ago, Banjo was still playing in the NFL as a backup safety and core special-teamer.
