Someone needs to get one of the old Barack Obama \u201cHope\u201d posters and photoshop Robert Saleh\u2019s face on it.<\/p>\n

Saleh\u2019s arrival as the Jets\u2019 new head coach has rejuvenated an organization beaten down by years of losing. The low point was a dismal 2-14 record in 2020, a season that was played under COVID-19 restrictions.<\/p>\n

\u201cLast year was tough mentally,\u201d guard Greg Van Roten said. \u201cIt was so stressful for a lot of guys, there were a lot of new players and so much uncertainty. We felt every day that we would get shut down, and that made it hard to go to work every day. You\u2019re trying to do your job, coupled with losing a lot, losing your job, there\u2019s turnover and a lot of new faces.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey hire Saleh, and it just feels like a weight has been lifted and hope has come back into the building. All we ask for is a fresh start in this league, and no one is happ<\/a>ier than the Jets. Now we\u2019re on Page 1, so let\u2019s write this year\u2019s chapter.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Jets\u2019 book features not only Saleh as a new main character, but also rookie quarterback Zach Wilson. The Jets decided to move on from Sam Darnold after three years and drafted Wilson out of BYU with the No. 2-overall pick. There is no phony quarterback competition or questions about whether Wilson will start Week 1. He is their guy and will be the starter, barring injury, when the Jets face the Panthers and Darnold on Sept. 12 to open the season.<\/p>\n

Between now and then, the Jets will learn more about Wilson and their entire squad through a training camp that begins with their first practice Wednesday, and through three preseason game<\/a>s and two weeks of joint practices with the Packers and Eagles.<\/p>\n

Saleh must rebuild the confidence of the returning players after five straight losing seasons and 10 without a playoff appearance. Then, he must weave in the new faces as the 2021 Jets begin to mesh. The Jets could have as many as 12 new starters and many more major contributors this season. They are going to need to coalesce quickly for the team to have early success.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur identity is not going to reveal itself until we see adversity,\u201d Saleh said. \u201cWhen things are good, everyone loves being part of winning, everyone loves being part of the good things. The whole disease of me, of course things are going to be good but, what\u2019s going to happen when you hit adversity, when things aren\u2019t going your way? How are you going to look, not only as an individual but as a team? Those moments have to reveal themselves.<\/p>\n

\u201cLike I\u2019ve said a million times now, we\u2019re going to have a lot of ebbs and flows. There\u2019s going to be a lot of great moments, there\u2019s going to be a lot of hair-pulling moments. At the end of the day, that\u2019s what\u2019s going to shape this football team.\u201d<\/p>\n

General<\/a> manager Joe Douglas filled some of the holes on the roster through free agency with pass rusher Carl Lawson, wide receiver Corey Davis, defensive tackle Sheldon Rankins and others. Then, he had what looks like a strong draft on paper \u2014 with Wilson, guard Alijah Vera-Tucker, wide receiver Elijah Moore, running back Michael Carter and cornerback Michael Carter II all entering the season as potential starters or major contributors.<\/p>\n

There are still major questions at cornerback, running back, linebacker and concerns about how quickly the offensive line can jell.<\/p>\n

But the biggest focus in camp and all season will be on Wilson, who was fighting for the starting job at BYU a year ago. So far, the reviews have been positive. But things are about to get more real.<\/p>\n

\u201cZach loves ball, that\u2019s one thing that I\u2019ve learned,\u201d Saleh said. \u201cHe\u2019s unflappable in the sense that he doesn\u2019t care whether something went good or bad. He wants to know why it went good or bad, he wants to learn from it. He is wired exactly the way you want all players to be wired, so now it\u2019s just a matter of him getting as many reps as possible, to go into as many situations as possible, to see how much he can get better.\u201d\n <\/p><\/div>\n
