Day one OTAs - What the coordinators had to say
After today's practice, each of the coordinators spoke to the media. Here were some of the key points.
Defensive co-ordinator Kacy Rodgers:
- The Jets were excited that Jamal Adams fell to them in the draft.
- Sheldon Richardson will play defensive tackle this year.
- The Jets feel Juston Burris and Darryl Roberts should have played more last year, which probably just means that Darrelle Revis should have played less.
Offensive co-ordinator John Morton:
- While he didn't today, the Jets plan is for Christian Hackenberg to get reps with the first-team offense.
- He plans to call plays from the booth during the season.
- He was candid about his offensive philosophy, saying only that it would be "competitive" and vary based on their opponent.
Special teams co-ordinator Brant Boyer:
- He praised punter Lac Edwards for his hard work and said he expects an improvement from him this year.
- The kicking battle (between Ross Martin and Chandler Catanzaro) is "wide open".
- He plans to be more aggressive this year.
Those were the main takeaways from today. We'll update you on anything else players/coaches tell the media soon.
