2024 Player Outlook
Even though they like to move Garrett Wilson into the slot to get mismatches (222 slot snaps in 17 games), Xavier Gibson quietly was the preffered slot guy for New York with 223 slot snaps in 14 games. With Wilson and Mike Williams now on the outside, that is his path to playing time in this Jets offense with a healthy Aaron Rodgers. The rub? They drafted Malachi Corley in the third round who led all rookie wide receivers in percentage of his catches behind the line of scrimmage last year in college. So we'll likely have camp battle between those two for slot duties. Gipson really only has appeal in leagues that might have points for return yards.
