The Laken Tomlinson performance that wowed the NY Jets’ scouts

New York Jets guard Laken Tomlinson was heavily featured in the new team-released documentary “Flight 2022”, which focuses on all aspects of the team’s 2022 offseason to this point.

In Episode 2, it is revealed that the Jets ranked Tomlinson as their No. 1 free-agent guard over the more well-known Brandon Scherff, with Tomlinson’s durability (1 game missed in 7 seasons) giving him the edge.

But that is not the only anecdote that caught my attention from the doc’s Tomlinson content.

Greg Nejmeh, the Jets’ director of pro personnel, singled out one specific performance that caught his attention when watching Tomlinson’s film: His game against the Colts in Week 7 of the 2021 season.
