The Jets don’t have first-round pick Zach Wilson on the field against the Dolphins on Sunday, but another of their early draft picks made a big play in the third quarter.
Second-round wide receiver Elijah Moore beat his man on third down and had no one between him and the end zone when Joe Flacco beat the blitz with a throw to the rookie. The 62-yard touchdown made it a 14-14 game at MetLife Stadium.
Moore now has four touchdowns in his last three games and seven catches for 130 yards on Sunday.
The Dolphins got a touchdown earlier in the quarter on a big passing pay of their own. Tua Tagovailoa and Mack Hollins hooked up for a 65-yard score that briefly put Miami in the lead.
