The New York Jets are seeking to break a four-game losing streak as they take on the New England Patriots, the last team they managed to defeat back in Week 3. After a promising start to the season with a 2-1 record and the addition of Aaron Rodgers, the Jets’ offense has fallen short of expectations, despite the recent acquisition of All-Pro receiver Davante Adams. The offense has struggled with consistency, and rookie receiver Malachi Corley, selected in the third round out of Western Kentucky, has had limited involvement with only one catch for four yards across three games.
Jets offensive play-caller Todd Downing recently commented on Corley’s limited role, attributing it to the deep talent in their receiver group rather than a lack of faith in the rookie’s abilities. Downing praised general manager Joe Douglas for assembling a competitive group, stating that Corley’s situation reflects the depth of the receiver corps. However, with the offense’s ongoing struggles, questions remain about whether the Jets will look to activate Corley against the Patriots to add a new dynamic to their attack.
