Jets HC addresses Corey Davis' future with the team

The depth chart begins to get congested behind reigning NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year Garrett Wilson, who’s firmly entrenched as New York’s No. 1 wideout. 

The team signed a four-year, $44M deal with Allen Lazard — Aaron Rodgers’ favorite target last year in Green Bay — who figures to be the No. 2 guy. And with Mecole Hardman and Randall Cobb both signing free-agent deals as well, Davis and his $11.1M cap hit figured to be an obvious casualty of a numbers game.

In two years in New York, the 28-year-old receiver has never had more than 34 receptions or four touchdowns. Last year, Davis was targeted just 62 times despite the Jets attempting 627 passes.

But despite his struggles, Saleh maintained that every receiver on the Jets roster — even Davis — fills a certain role within the team’s new offense.

“It felt like this year, bringing in Allen and having Corey, we have a lot bigger personnel now,” Saleh added. “…We're going see how they play within the system over OTAs and training camp, and their roles will be defined more.”
