After finding one starter on the offensive line, the Jets opt for a center in LSU’s Lloyd Cushenberry III.

Cushenberry is a starting-caliber center who was the anchor of the Tigers offensive line that claimed the Joe Moore Award in 2019, which is awarded to college football’s best unit.

Cushenberry has a high football IQ, the necessary leadership and the athleticism to be the perfect center for Sam Darnold. Everything starts up front for New York, especially with its young quarterback. Finding a capable NFL starter at the center position should be the Jets’ No. 1 priority this offseason.
