What happened: The New York Jets published the second episode of their "Flight" docuseries, taking viewers backstage during the 2026 NFL Draft. The installment follows EDGE rusher David Bailey through the draft process after the team selected him with the No. 2 overall pick. The series is being released in episodes covering the club's top selections.

Why it matters: Bailey arrived as a centerpiece of the Jets' offseason plan to fix a stagnant pass rush. New York used the No. 2 pick on him after signing the Texas Tech product to address one of the league's weakest sack totals, making his early development a storyline the franchise is eager to spotlight.

What to watch: Watch for how Bailey factors into the Jets' pass-rush rotation as the team builds toward training camp and the 2026 season.
