Bringing your daily links to the NFL’s New York Jets
Good morning Gang Green Nation! There’s some buzz recently about Brian Baldinger comparing New York Jets 2025 second round draft pick Mason Taylor to Kansas City Chiefs future Hall of Fame tight end Travis Kelce. Baldinger said this:
When you watch him run, there’s just not a lot of guys that are that big at 6-foot-5, 250 that are that smooth. Look, the production of Travis Kelce is off the charts, but he looks like Travis Kelce running.
It’s always nice to draw comparisons to all time great players, but this quote is probably less meaningful than some analysts are suggesting. Having a similar running style as another dude is a long, long way from producing like him, as Baldinger himself alludes to in the quote. It would certainly be nice to have a Travis Kelce clone playing for the Jets, but the odds of Mason Taylor being that guy are close to nil. That’s not a knock on Taylor, that’s just acknowledging the greatness of Kelce and the steep odds against any particular prospect playing at that level. Mason Taylor just needs to be the best version of himself. That should be just fine.
