When it comes to linebackers in defending pass-catchers, New York’s collection of LBs has been atrocious this year, ranking as the 6th-worst in the league.

The New York Jets will be starting backup quarterback Brady Cook in this week’s game, which typically means fewer pass attempts and more rushes.
