Tanner Engstrand knows he has his work cut out for him with the New York Jets this season.
Not only is he calling plays for the first time at the NFL level, but he’s been tasked with trying to get the most out of a former first-round pick in Justin Fields. Add in fans’ speculation that his lack of experience will lead to major struggles, and Engstrand has plenty of reasons to have a chip on his shoulder.
Despite the fanbase’s concern, Engstrand believes he’s ready for this role.
There’s reason to suspect he may be right.
