Streveler Next Taysom Hill

NFL Network insider Ian Rapoport shared that Streveler will be given a “Taysom Hill role” with the Jets. Jets head coach Robert Saleh in a press conference, admitted he is open to it and Streveler has done a nice job with the expanded role so far.

Role is Good For Both Streveler and the Jets

This role is not only good for Streveler as it gives him more opportunities, but also helps expand the Jets offense and keeps opposing defenses guessing. They already have great playmakers such as Garrett Wilson, Zonovan Knight, and C.J. Uzomah. Adding a guy like Streveler who can help in three different ways is great for a Jets team trying to make the playoffs.
