Mekhi Becton News
Free-agent offensive tackle Mekhi Becton has signed a deal with the Philadelphia Eagles. The former first-round pick has agreed to a one-year deal worth $5.5 million for next season. The New York Jets decided to move on from Becton after he started 16 games for them in 2023. Becton has not lived up to the hype of being taken early in the draft. To be fair, Becton has faced multiple injuries and is still young enough to turn his career around. This could end up being a steal for the Eagles if they can get Becton on the right track.
New York Jets free-agent offensive tackle Mekhi Becton visited with the Cincinnati Bengals on Thursday and has two more visits upcoming, according to a league source. Becton was the 11th overall pick by the Jets in 2020 out of Louisville. He started just 14 games in his first two seasons in the NFL due to knee injuries and missed all of 2022. The 6-foot-7, 363-pound hulking offensive lineman was finally able to stay healthy last year, starting 16 games for the Jets. The Bengals are searching for offensive tackle help this offseason after Jonah Williams signed with the Arizona Cardinals on Wednesday. While Becton's huge frame is great for getting in the way of would-be pass-rushers, he's missed more games (36) than he's played in (31) early in his NFL career.
New York Jets offensive lineman Mekhi Becton (ankle, knee), who came into Friday's Week 12 contest against the Miami Dolphins as questionable, is officially inactive. Becton won't be able to suit up after spraining his ankle in the Week 11 blowout loss to the Buffalo Bills. The good news is that his injury isn't believed to be all that serious, so he could have a chance at returning in Week 13 at home against the Atlanta Falcons. Becton's absence on Friday is notable with quarterback Tim Boyle replacing Zach Wilson under center for his first start of the year for the floundering Jets.
