Demario Davis, a veteran linebacker and one of the Jets' team captains, expressed confidence in his team's approach despite their recent losses that have dropped them to 1-3. After practice on Thursday, Davis emphasized the team’s commitment to maintaining their process without wavering or flinching, even as they face criticism and negative outcomes. He believes the organization is headed in the right direction and reassures that the current methods are sustainable for long-term success, though results have not yet reflected this internally perceived progress.
