Jets’ Robert Saleh Drops WR Hint While Discussing 2023 Changes
New York Jets head coach Robert Saleh spoke with NFL Network reporter Judy Battista ahead of the NFL’s Annual League Meetings, and although the interview did not provide any details on the decision to trade Elijah Moore, the Jets HC did comment on the new additions at wide receiver.
“It’s a dynamic room,” Saleh told Battista and NFL.com. “[Allen] Lazard and Corey [Davis] make our two very big receivers who can provide a lot in terms of the run game and getting those big-body, big-boy routes and those hard, over-the-middle concepts.
And you’ve got Mecole Hardman, who just has blazing speed. Adding that speed element to our group. Garrett [Wilson], obviously, coming back. Hopefully he continues to get better. We’ve got a bunch of young guys, too, that we’re really excited about that we’re hoping can develop. It’s a really exciting group of receivers.”
The Lazard and Hardman praise is expected from the player-friendly head coach, but one piece of that response was somewhat surprising. Saleh appeared to imply that the Jets have plans to retain Davis as one of their WRs in 2023.
A strong cut candidate the moment the 2022 campaign ended, Gang Green could save $10.5 million if they choose to part ways with the veteran wideout according to Over the Cap.
Having said that, Davis’ skill set fits new offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett’s scheme. The play-caller likes to operate a run-heavy system that utilizes bigger receivers that are strong blockers on the edge.
Lazard obviously has a history in Hackett’s offense, and Davis is practically built for it too — giving the Jets two of the better run-blocking WRs in the game with Denzel Mims as a decent reserve in this regard.
