If I asked you to name the New York Jets‘ best defensive linemen, which names would you mention?
This season, Bryce Huff would come first, followed by some combination of Jermaine Johnson, Quinnen Williams, and Quinton Jefferson.
With all of those undoubtedly excellent players, the second-highest-paid man on the line flies under the radar: John Franklin-Myers. In many ways, that’s because he often does the dirty work to enable other players to excel.
Against the Los Angeles Chargers, though, Franklin-Myers finally had his day in the limelight.
