Predicting The Jets’ Week 1 Defensive Starters: A potentially scary front seven

The Jets have made offseason changes when it comes to the brass running the defense.

A new defensive-minded head coach in Robert Saleh and a new coordinator in Jeff Ulbrich are in Florham Park. New defensive players have additionally been brought in by the way of the free-agent market and NFL Draft.

The Jets were 24th in total defense and 26th in points allowed last year — not fantastic rankings. This group must prove it’s superior to the 2020 version of Gang Green’s defense, and it’ll all begin with the Week 1 matchup against Carolina.
