Jets Free Agent Profile: What to do with OT Conor McDermott?

Conor McDermott’s versatility allows him to step in at multiple offensive line positions. Is that enough for the Jets to retain him?

Before Joe Douglas can focus on external targets, he has a handful of impending in-house free agents to evaluate.

The Jets have more than a few players set to hit the open market this offseason. Some won’t factor into New York’s plans for 2022, while others, it’s safe to assume, the Jets would like to keep around for a while. Either way, Douglas has a lot of work to do to put together a competitive roster for Robert Saleh’s second year at the helm.

Conor McDermott has been with the Jets since 2019 due in large part to his versatility. The 29-year-old can play multiple positions on the offensive line and has been called upon to do just that during his time with the organization.

Should the Jets bring McDermott back as offensive line depth again in 2022? Let’s evaluate the situation in our latest free agent profile.
