NY Jets: Mekhi Becton has met with team on FaceTime ahead of NFL Draft

NY Jets general manager Joe Douglas made a promise to Sam Darnold’s parents last preseason that he would protect their son with “protection and playmakers.”

Ahead of the 2020 NFL Draft, he’s doing what he can to fulfill that guarantee.

Per Jordan Reid of The Draft Network, former Louisville Cardinals offensive tackle Mekhi Becton has met with multiple teams this week in the top-15 of the 2020 NFL Draft including the NY Jets.

Since teams aren’t allowed to have prospects in their facilities, they have been meeting with these players virtually.
