Questionable
Injury Kneecap
Est. Return 6/15/2023
Not available to start OTAs
Becton (kneecap) won't practice Tuesday at OTAs, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Becton said the switch to right tackle last season caused his right knee injury, and he hopes to play exclusively at left tackle in 2023. However, head coach Robert Saleh said Duane Brown (shoulder) is still in the competition for the starting left tackle job, and that the best five offensive lineman will play, which may push Becton to the right side again. Regardless, his health is the primary concern for both parties this offseason, and there hasn't been any indication he's in danger of missing the start of the season.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2022
2021
After a promising rookie season as the Jets' starting left tackle in 2020, Becton hurt his MCL in the 2021 season opener and went on to miss the rest of the season. If he can get and stay healthy, Becton - who's listed at 6-foot-7 and 363 pounds - should occupy one of the starting tackle spots on New York's offensive line.
