Jets wide receiver Denzel Mims sort of fell under the radar this past spring and summer due to acquisitions at his position (both in free agency and the draft) and a battle with food poisoning. The latter issue, caused by unhealthy salmon, led to him losing 20 pounds and missing much of the team’s offseason program.
Because of these occurrences, some believed Mims was a potential roster cut. However, the 2020 second-rounder finds himself on the final 53 with much to prove.
There is belief he can contribute as well, regardless of the alternative options within the receiver room.
