When the New York Jets selected left tackle Olu Fashanu with the 11th pick of the 2024 draft, it was supposed to settle the position for the next decade. After sitting behind Tyron Smith for much of his rookie campaign, he finally got on the field he and played well enough to give Jets fans plenty of reason for optimism.
Fast Forward to this season and Fashanu has had a lot more hiccups than most anticipated.
Pressures allowed by starting @nyjets OL this season:
Olu Fashanu: 15
John Simpson: 6
Josh Myers: 6
Joe Tippmann: 5
Armand Membou: 4— Glenn Naughton (@JNRadio_Glenn) September 28, 2025
While nobody expected Fashanu to be Orlando Pace by year two, they certainly didn’t think he’d rank near the top of the NFL in pressures allowed after three games.
