Observations from the Jets’ training camp practice on Monday.
Hauling it in
Through the second snap of team drills, Tyler Conklin made a nifty one-handed catch off a throw from Aaron Rodgers — creating separation from safety Ashtyn Davis and pulling the ball toward him together with his right hand.
Conklin has collected 119 catches across his two seasons with the Jets, but entering a contract yr, his reference to Rodgers could help provide a bump in his receiving yards (552, 621) from 2022 and 2023, respectively.
‘O’ No!
The primary team offense, at times, struggled to maneuver the ball, and on the last drive, each Garrett Wilson and Breece Hall had passes bounce off their hands while getting covered.
Caught my eye
For the primary time in training camp, the Jets used rookie first-round pick Olu Fashanu at right tackle as an alternative of left — the spot where he played in college and thru the opening practices.
Robert Saleh said the Jets will cross-train Fashanu the subsequent couple of weeks.
Rodgers report
Rodgers unofficially accomplished six passes during team sessions, taking a sack at one point and appearing to have an interception snagged by Tony Adams worn out since it was a free play.
It’s unclear if an earlier interception by C.J. Mosley was worn out due to a free play, too.
Wilson got wide open for a touchdown pass, too.
Injury report
Robert Saleh said that TE Jeremy Ruckert is “coping with a couple of things” and can miss the subsequent few days.
CB Michael Carter II could return next week.
WR Mike Williams and OL Tyron Smith didn’t take part in team drills, with Saleh saying that the latter stemmed from the team’s ongoing caution with the veteran ahead of the regular season.
LB Jimmy Ciarlo tore his ACL in Saturday’s game and was released Monday.
