A day after selecting Tyron Smith’s backup in Olu Fashanu with the 11th pick in the draft, the Jets went out and added a weapon on offense in Malachi Corley. Malchi Corley's ability to gain yards after the catch comes from more than just being able to make defenders miss. Shows a powerful lower half and is able to take on contact, shed tacklers and make big plays. pic.twitter.com/7DQS1xQ4k5 — Glenn Naughton (@JetsPicks) February 21, 2024 The Western Kentucky product’s 259 career receptions set a school record while he managed to find the end zone 11 times in each of the past two seasons. Known as the “YAC king” for his ability to gain yards after the catch, Corley is a physical receiver who won’t hesitate to run through opposing defenders. The wideout also did a great job of re-building his physique as he transformed from a thick lower half and narrow trunk to a hulking physical wideout. Incredible Pre-draft transformation for Western Kentucky WR Malachi Corley.@CorleyMalachi has been training with @AspirationsGym since Jan. 8! Big Pro Day on deck…

Corley’s skill set should pair perfectly with the play style of Aaron Rodgers as his specialty is taking quick hitters and gaining yards after the catch. This, for a quarterback in Rodgers whose deep passes make the highlight reels despite truly making his living in the short game.The post Jets add Offensive Weapon With Selection of WR Malachi Corley appeared first on JetNation.com - New York Jets Blog & Forum.Source: https://www.jetnation.com/2024/04/26/je ... hi-corley/
