Jets’ ongoing center competition breeding camaraderie in Joe Tippmann and Josh Myers
NY Post
One way or another, the Jets are going to start a center who vacations in a niche spot in northern Michigan where hunting and snowmobiling are the popular pastimes.
Preseason practice ended Wednesday without a winner of the position battle between incumbent Joe Tippmann and free-agent addition Josh Myers — two Big Ten products who learned this summer that they have more than snapping in common.
“It’s still playing out,” head coach Aaron Glenn said, tersely confirming only that the Jets will “play a center” rather than line up with four offensive linemen.
The biggest starting lineup decision of training camp has only been complicated by left guard John Simpson’s recent absence at practice, which put Tippmann (at guard) and Myers on the field together.

Suddenly, someone had hit a rewind button and everyone had been transported back seven months. It was early spring instead of late fall, it was broiling hot outside the arena walls and not freezing cold. Everyone was back at TD Garden. There were 19,156 frenzied fans on their feet begging for blood, poised for the kill.
