Nutritionist of Mekhi Becton provides update on NY Jets OT’s status

New York Jets offensive tackle Mekhi Becton is on the Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list as the team reports to training camp today (July 26), but it appears he will not be on there for long.

According to ESPN’s Rich Cimini, Becton will be removed from the PUP list once he passes a physical.

Becton’s nutritionist, Ann Claiborne, provided an optimistic review of Becton’s progress throughout the offseason.

“He has slimmed down a lot,” Claiborne said. “He’s looking good, feeling good. Knee is doing a lot better. He is excited to play.
