CB Bless Austin
The sixth-round rookie had another nice game for the Jets. He allowed five catches for 45 yards on eight targets against Washington, per Next Gen Stats/ That included a great pass breakup on third-and-long.

Austin is playing well despite his youth, inexperience and draft slot. The Jets will continue to give him starter snaps as long as he plays at this level, and he could become a nice draft steal for the future of Gregg Williams’ defense.
