Denzel Mims has been a major disappointment for the Jets through two seasons in the NFL, only playing 20 games and catching a total of 31 passes for 490 yards and zero touchdowns. Injuries have played a role in his limited production, but he seems healthy and ready to roll for 2022.
Coach Robert Saleh said on Wednesday that he’s impressed with the shape Mims is in, adding that he’s “a lot further along today than he was a year ago.” That’s a great sign for the Jets, who need as many weapons as they can get for Zach Wilson.
Jets HC Robert Saleh asked about WR Denzel Mims:
He's doing better, he's in fantastic shape.
Says Mims is working on catch point, contested balls and continuing to grasp the offense.
'He’s a lot further along today then he was a year ago.'
