We’ll have plenty of chances to talk about Jets rookie passer Zach Wilson, but these preseason games are critically important for undrafted rookie free agents like Rashed. He received a lot of snaps in the team’s win over the Giants, playing with his hand in the dirt (or, more accurately, on the turf) on both sides of the line. Rashed isn’t going to overpower NFL tackles with his relative lack of bulk, and he was dominated at times. He showed himself willing to push his man into the pocket, however, using leverage. Rashed took on a wham block on one run play, creating a pile and a tackle for loss. He got fooled on a bootleg, giving up a big back-side gain, but came back to get a tackle for loss and sack on the following two plays. Rashed put some good plays on tape, but he will need to get to the quarterback more regularly to beat out veterans for a spot on the 53-man roster.
