Who will be the New York Jets’ kicker in 2025?

After a 2024 season in which unreliable kicking cost the Jets multiple games, fans are eager to see stability at the position.

Speaking to reporters at the team’s mandatory minicamp, special teams coordinator Chris Banjo outlined what he values most in a placekicker.

“I would just say consistency,” said Banjo. “That’s the biggest thing, consistency, and how guys respond to tough situations or situations that may not have went their way. “

After retiring from the NFL in 2022, Banjo made a swift transition to coaching, joining the Denver Broncos as a special-teams assistant in 2023.
