The Jets continue to add talent this off-season by signing Mecole Hardman
The New York Jets may be one of the most improved teams in 2023. With the signing of Mecole Hardman, they've now added him and former Green Bay Packers wide receiver Allen Lazard.
They are also expected to acquire Aaron Rodgers this off-season once a deal goes through when both sides can agree on compensation.
The #Jets potential offense in 2023:
QB: Aaron Rodgers
RB: Breece Hall
TE: Tyler Conklin
WR: Garrett Wilson
WR: Allen Lazard
WR: Mecole Hardman
WR: Elijah Moore
WR: Corey Davis (likely cut)
WR: Denzel Mims
TE: C. J. Uzomah https://t.co/gfAFCT9Bcs
The offense will get Breece Hall back after he suffered a season-ending ACL and meniscus tear last season. Offensive Rookie of the Year Garrett Wilson will also be entering his second season after recording over 1,000 yards with Zach Wilson, Mike White, and Joe Flacco.
They finished last season 7-10 while boasting one of the best defenses in the league. Their defense was led by Defensive Rookie of the Year, Sauce Gardner. Once the Jets acquire Rodgers, they'll have the star power to become one of the best teams in the NFL.
