Most would say that the most important player on defense for the New York Jets is safety Jamal Adams. Adams is one of the best strong safeties in the NFL, having a career year in 2019.
In 14 games, Adams logged 6.5 sacks, 75 combine tackles, 10 tackles for loss, 13 quarterback hits, and three total turnovers. He also posted a 55.3% completion rate against and allowed just two touchdowns. He was a fantastic tackler posting a 5.1% missed tackle rate. Overall, the influence Adams has on defense is unparalleled, but the only player that can stand up to him and CJ Mosley, who missed most of 2019 with an injury.
