The perception is that he does. He's going to be given an opportunity to prove his doubters wrong.

the fact that this is even being floated around bothers the excrement out of me.

Fant played 889 snaps and only allowed 1 sack.  You can't just hand the job back to Becton.

Give Fant the starting LT job and play Becton at TE. He might not be fast but he can catch a ball ten feet off the ground and there's no stopping him once it's in his hands.

Exactly. I don't see why this should be concerning, though I'm sure the media/certain segments of the fanbase will run hog wild with it...

Hughes is trying to make it into a controversy.

No, you can't.  And that's a problem for a guy we took 11th overall only 2 years ago.


He better change his freaking attitude and get with the program this offseason.

Or we can just play him at right tackle...

Whoever doesn't win the LT job transitions to RT. If we take Neal or Ickey at 4, they'll play RG before potentially replacing one of Fant/Becton down the road.

I don't give a excrement what Connor Hughes says about it.  I care that Saleh had to bring this up because it clearly concerns him.

I didn't hear the context within which this was brought up. I'm assuming Saleh just answered a question about the LT job.

There's definitely been a lot of smoke that the Jets aren't thrilled with Becton, whether that's Pauline or elsewhere. This helps confirm that.

That said, I see a lot of fans thinking this is odd. Seems like common sense to me. Fant played too well to lose his job unless Becton takes it from him.  Hopefully, Becton earns a spot next year, whether it's on the left or right.

I don't believe Becton has an attitude problem. If anything, he has a maturity problem (as many young players do). Hopefully this will resolve itself now that he has to compete for his job.
