Here are three takeaways from the Jets’ 15-12 preseason win over the Panthers:
1. The Jets front seven has depth.
The defensive line looked good despite not having any starters playing.
Will McDonald dominated Panthers quarterback Zach Plummer and other players showed good drive against the Carolina line.
2. Olu Fashanu started at right tackle and played the entire first half.
The first-round pick played left tackle last week.
The Jets are looking to get him ready to be the primary backup at both spots.
Fashanu was booked for holding and struggled on running plays but held up well on pass blocking.
3. The Jets had some good special teams plays.
Brandon Codrington had a 63-yard kickoff return to start the second half.
Codrington, who later recorded a 31-yard punt return, is unlikely to make the Jets’ roster, but he solidified his place as a returner.
Backup kicker Austin Seibert had four field goals, including one from 52 yards out.
Seibert is not with the Jets, which has Greg Zurlein, but he could be available from another team.
