Because Robinson was a healthy scratch from Sunday\u2019s 31-10 Jets win over the Bears at MetLife Stadium and \u2014 all due respect to Robinson \u2014 he wasn\u2019t missed.<\/p>\n<p>Not with Zonovan Knight, playing in his first NFL <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/game\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"7\" title=\"Game\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">game<\/a>, rushing for 69 yards on 14 carries and little-used Ty Johnson rushing for 62 yards on five carries, including a 32-yard TD run.<\/p>\n<p>Those two players were on the roster when Robinson was acquired.

I felt like, over the past few weeks there has been a lot of meat on the bone in the run game. We felt if we could just get vertical and get rolling. With James, he is still learning our system. There are still things he is getting comfortable with. No one has seen the last of him.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI just thought this would be an opportunity to get a change of pace with Bam, who gets vertical pretty quick.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/11\/20221125NYJVCHB0139RS.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"Jets\" class=\"wp-image-24807821\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/11\/20221125NYJVCHB0139RS.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1535 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/11\/20221125NYJVCHB0139RS.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/11\/20221125NYJVCHB0139RS.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>Zonovan Knight runs he ball for the Jets against the Bears.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">Robert Sabo<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Knight called the opportunity \u201ca blessing.\u2019\u2019 He got more opportunities when Michael Carter was knocked out of the game with an ankle injury.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"single__inline-module alignright\">\n    <\/aside>\n<p>\u201cI didn\u2019t even know he was out,\u201d Knight said. \u201cI was wondering why I kept going back out there.
