Camp Recap: Day 25 - 8/22/2018

The Jets were on the field for their final camp practice this afternoon. Here were some of the main things that happened, as reported by media on site:

  • Lucky Whitehead returned to practice and was in the group returning punts along with Trenton Cannon, Andre Roberts and Tre McBride;
  • Steve McLendon, Jeremy Clark and Xavier Coleman were not in pads. McLendon did some running on the side, while Kendall Reyes spent practice on the exercise bike;
  • Taylor Bertolet missed a 53-yard field goal but made his other five;
  • Sam Darnold opened up with the first team offense against the scout team;
  • Brian Winters and Kelvin Beachum were again working with the first unit;
  • Darnold started off a bit shaky, missing a few throws;
  • Chris Herndon had a leaping touchdown catch at the back of the end zone;
  • Josh Martin had a couple of sacks in the not-full-speed team periods;
  • Bridgewater got some reps but McCown did not, so he's clearly not playing on Friday night;
  • As expected the session ended early;
  • After practice Todd Bowles admitted that a rotation at outside linebacker is quite possible;
  • When asked which position group had impressed him the most, he said that the tight ends and secondary had been the most consistent; and
  • He confirmed that, in Friday night's game, the starters will play at least the first two quarters and that Kelvin Beachum and Brian Winters could play.
