Justin Fields has Best day of Camp as Taylor Scores Again

It’s been an up and down camp for Fields thus far with consistency being somewhat of a concern.  But as we pointed out just yesterday, it’s too early to worry about that just yet.  And on cue, Fields had the offense humming.  In what has become a seemingly daily occurrence, Fields hit Mason Taylor down the middle for a 25-yard touchdown pass.

It wasn’t all Justin Fields on the day either as the Jets got some plays from receivers catching the ball from Tyrod Taylor along with a few defensive standouts.

Undrafted rookie receiver Quentin Skinner, who has been very quiet up to this point, hauled in a deep touchdown from Taylor that got his teammates fired up.

Skinner is a player who shouldn’t be slept on.  He’s a huge target at 6′ 5”, has very good hands and is a very good blocker.  His route running may not yet be on par with Allen Lazard, but his hands are far superior.  Should the Jets opt to deal Lazard as some expect, it could create an opening for Skinner.

On defense, several observers reported a leaping athletic interception from second-year cornerback Quan’tez Stiggers from Tyrod Taylor as he continues to battle for a roster spot.

Rookie Arian Smith also had himself a big day in not only getting separation which few doubted he would be able to do.

Smith showed off his elite acceleration in blowing past cornerback AZ Thomas on another touchdown pass from Tyrod Taylor.

All in all, a huge day for Fields and plenty of plays from the youngsters to give the Jets some good vibes as they get ready for today’s Green and White practice at 8:30am.
