The New York Jets’ secret weapon isn’t much of a secret anymore. Their special teams have become one of the strongest parts of the roster, and, as we saw firsthand this past Sunday, the team has legitimately won games because of the so-called third phase.

This group has become the NFL’s gold standard, and at the center of it all is kick returner Kene Nwangwu. Nwangwu is quickly becoming one of the most feared returners not only in the league today, but he's already putting himself into all-time conversations.

Following his 99-yard kick return touchdown against the Cleveland Browns in Week 10, Nwangwu has now scored five career kick return touchdowns on just 79 attempts.
