Malachi Corley has a plan of what he’ll do with the soccer as soon as he reaches the top zone once more.
“I’m going to probably hold onto the ball all the way to the sideline and give it to coach [Ulbrich] and let him know that I owed him that one,” the Jets rookie receiver mentioned Wednesday.
Corley used to be on his method to his first profession landing latter Thursday towards the Texans when he dropped the ball in birthday party too quickly.
Corley had now not but crossed the target fold when he dropped the soccer and it rolled during the finish zone out of bounds, giving the ball to the Texans. The play games in an instant used to be added to the blooper reel of embarrassing Jets moments, however Corley mentioned he isn’t remorseful.
“It’s not a defining moment for me,” Corley mentioned. “Imagine if I broke three tackles, juked a guy and then I dropped the ball one yard from the end zone. Still, you did that same play but holding the ball for one more yard is not a coaching point for anything. If they give me the ball again, I’ll do the same thing over and over.”
Corley would possibly get some other probability briefly.
The Jets traded Mike Williams to the Steelers on Tuesday, which creates a trail for Corley to play games extra.
“I thought he responded well,” intervening time schoolteacher Jeff Ulbrich mentioned of Corley’s mishap. “He went out there and he played a physical, violent brand of football. We’re going to count on him that way especially with [Allen] Lazard [being injured] and Mike being gone now. He’ll assume more reps and he’ll be part of that receiving corps that is in there to block at times.”
The Jets are banged up at cover. Starters Alijah Vera-Tucker (ankle) and John Simpson (groin) didn’t follow on Wednesday. Neither did extra Jake Hanson (hamstring). The Jets can have to begin Max Mitchell and rookie Olu Fashanu Sunday towards the Cardinals. Fashanu performed cover for the primary age in his hour latter Thursday towards the Texans.
The alternative avid gamers who didn’t follow had been: RT Morgan Moses (knee), LT Tyron Smith (left-overs era), DT Solomon Thomas (knee), LB C.J. Mosley (neck) and CB Michael Carter (again). LB Chazz Surratt (heel) and S Ashtyn Davis (concussion) had been restricted.
QB Aaron Rodgers (knee, hamstring) and S Tony Adams (hamstring) had been complete contributors.
Jets WR Garrett Wilson used to be named AFC Offensive Participant of the Presen upcoming he had 9 receptions for 90 yards and two one-handed touchdowns towards the Texans.
