The Jets will be without Mekhi Becton for what’s likely to be the entire 2022 season, the second year in a row he’ll miss just about the whole campaign. Not long after learning about the severity of Becton’s knee injury, the Jets signed veteran tackle Duane Brown.
There was some speculation about whether Brown would play left tackle or if George Fant would remain there after starting training camp at that spot, but there isn’t much question anymore. In practice on Sunday, Fant lined up at right tackle to start practice, a clear indication that Brown will be Zach Wilson’s blindside protector.
