2023 Jets OL lineups/changes -- I count 15 so far


Recommended Posts

I think I have this right (?)

Discounting someone leaving briefly for a series or two before returning to the field as a lineup change, the number of actual OL lineup combos/changes has been just nuts again this year.

*****

Game 1 (Buf) and Game 2 (@Dal)

  • OL Lineup #1 = Brown - Tomlinson - McGovern - AVT - Becton
  • T Carter Warren starts the season on IR (shoulder); removed from IR week 5; activated week 6

Game 3 (NE)

  • Duane Brown (hip) goes on IR & really never again returns (maybe on the field in Dec for a jumbo pkg)
  • Wes Schweitzer out for 2 weeks (concussion)
  • Becton moves from RT to LT
  • AVT moves from RG to RT

So they finally sir becton for game 16 but Tomlinson stays in.  There’s something to be said for a play to be ready to go each game but did Tomlinson actually contribute to anything?  And since the pairing of Tomlinson and becton seemed to be for the most games you’d think the left side would be reasonably good.  It wasn’t.

Tomlinson was a bad signing

He was never a great athlete coming out of Duke. Yes he made the pro bowl but he did it next to Trent Williams the best tackle in the league 

The Jets give him all this money and he promptly goes over the hill 

Sound familiar? Duane Brown cj usomah, Cobb, cook, Turner, lazard and of course Aaron 

The Jets were a rebuilding young team in the last year it's become a way station for ancient or otherwise declining players. One last paycheck before retirement

Warren started at RT against Washington and Cleveland. Becton was the LT against Cleveland and Myles Garrett treated him like a turnstile.
