Observations from Jets’ training camp on Friday:

Field of Dreams

Justin Fields had a standout practice, effectively maneuvering both inside and outside the pocket, while displaying strong rapport with Garrett Wilson and Mason Taylor during a streak of 12 consecutive successful completions.

Lax Security

The defense got some pressure on Fields, but was a little lax in coverage, with receivers consistently open.

Caught My Eye

Rookie wide receiver Arian Smith had a notable performance, securing a touchdown from Tyrod Taylor on a crossing pattern and making an additional significant play along the sideline with a deep pass from Fields.
