The NY Jets went into the 2019 season with one of the largest free agency budgets in sports history.
While ex-general manager Mike Maccagnan signed (and drafted) his way out of the NFL, he got a few things rights, like his three-year $28.5 million ($17 million guaranteed) deal for Washington Redskins receiver Jamison Crowder.
Considering the early season incompetence of quarterback whisperer Adam Gase’s league-worst offense, the 2015 fourth-round from Duke (All-ACC 2013-2014) delivered big-time with 78 receptions for 833 yards and six touchdowns.
Interestingly, his biggest games were in the first and last games of the season, both against the Buffalo Bills — the only New York football team currently playing home games in the state of New York.
