The case for bringing free agent safety Jayron Kearse to NY Jets

Who’s starting at safety in 2022 for the New York Jets?

It’s a question that crosses my mind frequently. In my opinion, it’s the Jets’ biggest question mark on the defensive side of the football for next season.

We often hear that the safety position is key to the Robert Saleh defense. Look at Jimmie Ward in San Francisco and Earl Thomas in Seattle (while Saleh was a defensive quality control coach with the Seahawks)

Now, look at the Jets.

Heading into 2021 there were some expectations for that position group.
