When the Jets drafted wide receiver Elijah Moore in the second round, they described him as a "gadget guy" who could fill a Deebo Samuel-like role -- an explosive wide receiver who could be used in the running game. That hasn't materialized.
Noting the size difference between Moore (5-foot-10, 178 pounds) and the San Francisco 49ers' receiver (6-foot, 215), offensive coordinator Mike LaFleur said to use Moore "in the backfield and have him play between the tackles isn't necessarily the greatest thing in the world."
He's right, but he should be able to cook up creative ways to get Moore the ball. The offense needs the spark.
