Nick Folk remembers Mason Taylor from his last stint with the Jets. Taylor, the Jets’ rookie tight end, was six years old running around the practice field during summer camp at SUNY Cortland. His dad, Jason, was on the team. For good measure, Folk also played with Taylor’s uncle, Zach Thomas, two years prior to that in Dallas.

Folk would bring considerably more reliability to the Jets' kicking game. Together, Mougey and special teams coordinator Chris Banjo must decide if they want to gamble on Mevis or Davis being a long-term solution. Signing Folk would obviously be a short-term fix.
