Summary
Nahshon Wright’s breakout season with the Bears—five interceptions, three fumble recoveries, and 80 tackles—has made him a Jets’ defensive savior in his first year. Signed for $5.5M with $3.5M guaranteed, Wright’s turnover prowess and run-stopping ability could finally fix the Jets’ leaky secondary. His elite stats (fourth in decade for his stat line) and game-reading skills make him a rare gem, though he still needs to polish his coverage. If healthy, he could be the biggest free agent steal of the offseason—and if not, Azareye’h Thomas is ready to step in.
