A sign of the future to come or perhaps it meant nothing at all? After the Jets ended their painful 2024 season with a 32-20 win over the Dolphins, players were happy as expected. A better draft pick means little to them.

There's no doubting that Davante Adams has been a boon for the offense. Over his nine games with the team, the wide receiver has caught 56 passes for 719 yards and six touchdowns. He is tied for the team lead in receiving touchdowns and trails just Garrett Wilson in receptions and yardage.
