When the coronavirus pandemic forced NFL teams to move their preseason activities off the field and into virtual classrooms it benefited no one. This was especially true for the Jets because of the vast number of new players joining the roster for this season, especially on offense.
The backbone of an offensive line is the players’ chemistry and cohesiveness and the Jets will have at least four new starters including first-round pick Mekhi Becton out of Louisville.
