ith injuries and poor performance ravaging the New York Jets secondary throughout the season, the team has been forced to scrape the bottom of the barrel for usable bodies.
This past Sunday against the Las Vegas Raiders, undrafted free agent cornerback Javelin Guidry – a former 60-meter champion at Utah who ran a blazing 4.29 in the forty-yard dash at the Combine – played a career-high 36 defensive snaps (46.2% of the team’s defensive plays). Guidry had been a special teams regular over his first seven NFL appearances for the Jets, but he was rarely seen on defense, playing just eight defensive snaps over two different games.
