It was my impression that the term "PUP" stands for "physically unable to practice." If that is correct, then JBC shouldn't be able to practice unless they have activated him off of the PUP list. Was JBC activated off of the PUP list? If so, I don't like the timing, at this point, I'm not sure that he can show enough even if he could practice in team play today, to earn a roster spot. By activating him, that means they'll either have to waive him or keep him on the roster over a player who has been practicing and maybe earned a spot on the team. I'm torn here. I really like his potential, and don't want his rookie season to be wasted, but I don't want to wind up losing him to another team like happened with Pinnock, either.
On the video ont he previous page, I heard that Zaire Barnes leads the whole NFL in tackles in preseason!
Sorry folks, work got in the way of giving real-time updates today. Gonna sort though the tweets now and post them. Expect longer posts from one particular person to expedite this process!
Nick Faria (@Nick_Faria1720): Team drill time. Trystan Colon is with starting group at guard as #Jets slowly bring AVT back up. JJ & JFM are edges Quinnen Williams is really good people. Already has a couple pressures in this no-huddle session. #Jets Rodgers with a PERFECT throw and Lazard makes an incredible catch for the TD over Sauce. Gardner had perfect coverage but it didn’t matter. Excellent offensive drive for #Jets Holy moly who is this Zach Wilson? 3/3 to start this no-huddle session with excellent timing throws. Both first and second team offenses are playing with a TON of confidence today. #Jets Pita Taumoepenu with a “sack” in no huddle. He continues to impress #Jets Wilson finishes 6/6 passing in no huddle but couldn’t get in the end zone because he took a bad sack. Regardless, this is easily the best the passing offense has looked in weeks. #Jets Have to talk about this throw again because holy crap. Highlight will probably come later from the team. (Referring to the throw Rodgers made to Lazard, will post the video when I find it) Scout offense and defense taking turns against the 1s now. #Jets Nice “Breece” chant as he takes reps with the first team. #Jets Whenever Breece Hall is running behind AVT it feels like he isn’t touched for at least 10 yards. Yeesh. #Jets This #Jets offense is going to be lethal in PA. Rodgers has Carter wide open and would’ve been a big gain in game. Not what you want to see but Deslin Alexandre has blown up the last two run plays against the first team. Having Duane Brown back is so important. #Jets Zack Kuntz is finding himself open frequently for the third-team offense. #Jets Rodgers to Uzomah this time. #Jets (Referencing back to his earlier PA comment) #Jets OL working on blitz protection against scout looks. Thought they handled them well. Helps when Rodgers is excellent at knowing where people are coming from and can get the ball out quickly. Rodgers to Cobb for a big gain on a blitz. For those that thought Cobb won’t get a lot of playing time in 2023….that might be changing. #Jets Now Rodgers finds an open Hardman downfield in what would’ve been a touchdown. Hardman’s speed is going to be so important to the offense this year. #Jets #Jets starting defense using three safeties on the field right now against 1s on offense. Amos, Adams, and Whitehead. #Jets Cobb drops a back shoulder fade from Rodgers. Good throw. #Jets Mekhi Becton absolutely obliterated Jordan Whitehead on a run. #Jets McDonald-Becton battle continues. This time the rookie recorded a “sack” on Rodgers there. Kid is so good. #Jets Now Bryce Huff beats Billy Turner for a would-be sack. Starting offense is a mixed bag in this session. Drops, missed blocks and false starts. #Jets Zaire Barnes certainly looks like a quality linebacker. Big pop on Knight on a run between 2s. #Jets It’s already been mentioned but Lazard went inside before practice ended. We’ll know more on the cause tomorrow. #Jets Practice is over for media. - PA pass is going to be instrumental to #Jets offense - Rodgers to Lazard in two-minute was a beauty - Love the battle going on between Becton & McDonald - Strong day from Cobb, AVT, and Hall
Zack Rosenblatt (@ZackBlatt): Joe Tippmann (knee) is participating in individual drills with the offensive line. #Jets DB Jarrick Bernard-Converse is running off to the side with trainers. The rookie has been on PUP with an injury and has missed all of training camp. #Jets Not practicing: G Wes Schweitzer. Think he got banged up yesterday. #Jets Trystan Colon at RG with Aaron Rodgers. Rest of the starters as expected, still Mekhi Becton at RT. #Jets Aaron Rodgers got out on a scramble for a first down. Will McDonald forced him out of the pocket. But Rodgers can still move. Aaron Rodgers just completed a fantastic deep ball to Allen Lazard, who was draped in coverage by Sauce Gardner. Long touchdown pass. #Jets I’m starting to get the feeling that Randall Cobb will play a bigger role in this offense than expected. He’s been getting more reps with Aaron Rodgers than Mecole Hardman recently. #Jets I would say it’s definitely load management with AVT. He’s still out here just not getting all the reps. (In response to a tweet regarding AVT not starting the day with the 1's/not getting 100% of reps today) Aaron Rodgers had pressure bearing down at him but, unfazed, completing a pass down the field to Garrett Wilson for a big gain. He always seems to know where Garrett is on the field. Their connection is fun to watch. #Jets Aaron Rodgers with a nice downfield pass to, wait for it, Randall Cobb.
Connor Hughes (@Connor_J_Hughes): Man, Aaron Rodgers is good. Just a picture-perfect 30-yard TD pass to Allen Lazard on third down in drive-the-field drill. Put it right over Sauce Gardner, who had 1-on-1 coverage. Situation was 22-17 trailing with under 2 minutes to play. Gardner coverage was good. Rodgers just put it where only a leaping Lazard (in full-on sprint) could get it. That was cool to watch. #Jets Lazard left practice. Saleh will talk again tomorrow Noticing this as well. Working himself in a lot more than I expected. (In response to Rosenblatt's tweet talking about Randall Cobb and his usage).
Brian Costello (@BrianCoz): Two dropped punt returns out of the first three and one over the returner’s head. Hardman catches the fourth and the crowd goes wild. Rodgers with his ridiculous throw of the day. About 30 yards in the back corner of the end zone to Lazard, who was covered by Sauce. Allen Lazard headed inside.
Rich Cimini (@RichCimini): No sign of Vera-Tucker at practice. With Schweitzer also out, they’re down to Colon at RG. #Jets On third down, Rodgers throws up a deep 50-50 ball to Lazard, who outmuscles Gardner in the end zone for a TD. #jets Update: AVT is in now. Rotating at RG as he returns from ankle injury. Rodgers recognizes a pressure look, appears to change the play. Knight picks up the blitzer, Rodgers slings a long completion to Wilson. That’s what 18 years experience can do. #Jets WR Allen Lazard heads to the locker room early. #Jets Sloppy period for Rodgers & Co vs first-team defense. Dropped passes, a false start, general blech. Rodgers not happy as he walks to the sideline. #Jets
@JetsTalk247: (Click on the words for the link to the video on Twitter) Rodgers to Woody lol #Jets Huff offsides #Jets Rodgers doing his best Zach impression #Jets Rodgers to Conklin #Jets Rodgers with a nice pass to Lazard...damn pole in the way #Jets Zach with a nice completion #Jets Zach continues to move ball #Jets Zach again moving the ball #Jets After a sack, Zach completes the next pass #Jets Zach another completion but WR stays in bounds, clock runs out before next snap #Jets Zach to Kuntz #Jets Dye with the run #Jets Bam Bam running #Jets Breeeeece #Jets MC handoff #Jets Rodgers > Garrett #Jets Legs lookin good #Jets Zach to Charles #Jets Breece with a little dive at the end had fans gasp #Jets Rodgers to MC #Jets Bawden false start, Rodgers mad #Jets Bam with a little shake and bake. Ruckert with some extracurriculars #Jets Zach moving the ball along sideline #Jets Zach not taking Rodgers advice.... #Jets Would have been a sack but Zach with the INT #Jets Zach with the nice PA #Jets Rodgers to Uzomah #Jets Rodgers X Garrett #Jets Rodgers to Uzomah #Jets Rodgers > Hardman #Jets Zach to Charles #Jets Zach gets it out quick #Jets Rodgers to Conklin #Jets TE's active Rodgers throws a dart! #Jets Rodgers to Hardman #Jets Rodgers to Garrett #Jets Rodgers X Ruckert #Jets Free play, Cobb can't bring it in #Jets Breeeeece #Jets Uzomah with a drop #Jets Becton False Start #Jets Rodgers with the Sauce sign to Garrett #Jets Rodgers would've been sacked, gets it to Conklin #Jets Knight running hard #Jets Zach runs out of bounds! Rodgers happy! #Jets Zach working the hard count, free play no good #Jets Zach quick pass to Gipson #Jets Zach tucks it and runs out of bounds #Jets Zach tries to force it, Hall almost gets it #Jets (Obviously, a lot of videos here and I hope I formatted them properly/correctly. If you catch one that's wrong, let me know and I'll fix it!)
I posted this in the Corey Davis thread but the beat is reporting that he just announced his retirement from the NFL. Link to his retirement announcement on Instagram.
so it looks like we finally will have an NFL caliber O... just saying. Forgot to add, its about F time.
