As much as I like Jaylon, he's looked really off this season. I don't think I've ever seen a linebacker get so much praise, while missing so many open field tackles. He looks like he's favoring his good leg and overextending every angle.
Even on the forced fumble, he overextended, slipped, and barely got a finger on the ball. He can run fast in straight lines, & pass rush, but his lateral movement is just so off.. It's obvious his dropfoot is still an issue.
He is taking bad angles. Not sure how much of that is fixable and how much is just instincts. I thought contract was premature but Jerry wanted to send message that character & being company guy goes long way on this team.
