Who Leads the Jets in Tackles?
Do you know? You may be surprised. It has to be David Harris, right? No. This thread from the JetNation forums pointed out the leader and I thought it was worth sharing. Mainly because I was surprised it wasn’t David Harris. It isn’t Bart Scott either, but he does so much grunt work that he really shouldn’t be leading the team in tackles.
Safety Eric Smith leads the New York Jets in tackles. Here are the top 10 tacklers on the NY Jets so far this season:
