Rookie D'Angelo Ponds Set to Make NFL Debut Against Packers

New York Jets rookie defensive back D'Angelo Ponds is healthy and will make his NFL debut Sunday against the Green Bay Packers. Ponds missed most of training camp with a calf injury suffered in July. Head coach Aaron Glenn confirmed Ponds is ready to compete at a high level after being inactive in Week 1. The 50th overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft will bolster the Jets' secondary against Green Bay's potent passing attack.
