Jets Add Billy Turner
Good morning! ☀️
Just a quick note from me this morning as we're still in the hospital waiting for this baby, who seems to be refusing to arrive. My whole plan was to post on Saturday and Sunday and then have a break to welcome the little one 👶.
No. Such. Luck.
With the Rangers losing game seven last night, it was a harsh reality check that talent only gets you so far, especially talent of advanced age. Luckily for the Jets, they have a good mix, but they did add another veteran last night.
This is just a short post today to say hello and cover the Billy Turner signing. If there are some errors then I apologize, sleeping in a hospital chair 🪑 doesn't lend itself to restful slumber.

Free agent signings at this point won't impact your draft compensation calculations, and now you are post-draft you have a clear idea of team weaknesses.
With that in mind, the Jets added a versatile veteran piece to the offensive line, agreeing to a one-year deal with former Green Bay Packer Billy Turner.
