2 years agoNew York Jets left tackle Mekhi Becton said his knee is close to 100% and said his conditioning is fine. He neglected to reveal his current weight, but said he'll be ready for training camp at the end of July. After starting 13 games in his rookie season in 2020, Becton made only one start in 2021 after suffering an MCL injury in Week 1 that he never recovered from. George Fant replaced Becton on quarterback Zach Wilson's blind side and did a commendable job, so the two will battle for the starting left tackle job in training camp this summer. The 23-year-old might be making progress in regards to his knee injury, but it's far from a certainty that he'll be able to regain the starting gig after he was the 11th overall pick in the 2020 draft.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
