NY Jets must bench struggling veteran who is crushing the offense

Before the New York Jets begin shuffling the offensive line around (and they absolutely need to do that soon if things don’t change quickly for the unit), there is a much simpler move they can make to help jumpstart the offense: benching C.J. Uzomah.

It flies under the noses of many in the national media, but Uzomah has been performing woefully since he signed with the Jets and should be receiving just as much flack as the team’s oft-criticized offensive line. His 2022 season was a massive disappointment relative to the three-year, $24 million contract he signed.
