All Denzel Mims wanted was an opportunity to play. That was the reason behind his trade request back in the summer. Now that he finally is seeing the field, Mims is making the most of his chances. On Sunday against the Bills, Mims saw plenty of time on the field and even though he didn’t see a ton of targets or make a lot of catches, he delivered right when the Jets needed him to.
The Jets ran 60 offensive snaps in their 20-17 win over the Buffalo Bills in Week 9. Mims was on the field for 50 of those 60 snaps, good for 83%. That’s a bump up from the 75% snaps (44/59) he saw in Week 8 against the Patriots. He also saw one more target against the Bills than he did against the Patriots.
