Jets cancel pre-draft meeting with David Bailey
New York Post • • sports
Key Points:
- The New York Jets canceled a planned top-30 pre-draft visit with Texas Tech edge rusher David Bailey, a decision that may or may not have significance.
- The Jets are expected to select either Bailey or Ohio State edge rusher Arvell Reese with their No. 2 overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft.
- The team previously met Bailey at his pro day and conducted extensive evaluations, leading them to feel an additional visit was unnecessary.
- Pre-draft visits are typically used to address questions or gain more exposure to prospects, so canceling the visit could suggest the Jets are confident in their assessment or have other priorities.
- The Jets will continue to deliberate between Bailey and Reese over the next week before announcing their draft decision.
