Your new Jets defensive end rotation
A deep dive into the Jets' new-look defensive end rotation
The Jets have a new-look defensive end rotation in 2023, and it's one that could be among the best in the NFL.
Led by Quinnen Williams, the Jets have a deep and talented group of defensive ends who can create havoc in the backfield. Williams is one of the best young defensive players in the NFL, and he's coming off a season in which he had 11 sacks and 30 tackles for loss.
Alongside Williams, the Jets have a number of other talented defensive ends who can make an impact. Carl Lawson is a former first-round pick who has shown flashes of brilliance in his career. John Franklin-Myers is a rising star who had 6 sacks and 16 tackles for loss in 2022.
The Jets also added some depth to their defensive end rotation in the offseason, signing former Seahawks DE Shelby Harris. Harris is a veteran player who has been a productive pass rusher throughout his career.
Here's a look at how the Jets' defensive end rotation could shake out in 2023:
- Starting defensive ends: Quinnen Williams, Carl Lawson
- Backup defensive ends: John Franklin-Myers, Shelby Harris
- Rotational defensive ends: Bryce Huff, Michael Clemons
