PLAYER OF THE GAME

Once a promising 2022 fourth-round pick, Jets offensive tackle Max Mitchell has endured two rough, pressure-filled NFL seasons.

The Louisiana product re-instilled some confidence in onlookers in this game with a clean showing in pass protection across eight such snaps and a dominant effort in run blocking. Mitchell earned a positive grade on more than half of his run-blocking snaps.
