Rookie offensive lineman Anez Cooper hyped up the crowd pre-practice on Saturday as the Jets took the field at the Atlantic Health Jets Training Center for Back Together Weekend.
There was plenty to cheer for with the offense cashing in for several touchdowns. The Jets shifted their focus to the red zone for team periods and 7-on-7 drills.
“I thought our offense really started off hot, did a really good job when it comes to that, and then our defense started to pick it up,” head coach Aaron Glenn said after practice.
The ball didn’t hit the ground once for QB Geno Smith, as he went 11 of 11 with 4 TDs in team drills.
“It’s good to see that from your starter,” Glenn said. “Listen, he’s worked his butt off from the offseason going to the beginning of training camp of understanding exactly what we’re doing.”
It didn’t take long for WR Garrett Wilson to get in the mix, connecting with Smith on the first two plays of the first team period and three other times throughout practice. In the second team period, Wilson hauled in a TD in the back right corner of the end zone.
