Jets' Frank Reich used a 5-tight end look he says no one has seen in the NFL for at least 20 years | Arkansas Democrat Gazette
New York Jets quarterback Geno Smith noticed a rare personnel package last Sunday: five tight ends lined up on the same play during the third quarter of the Jets’ 23-10 win at Tennessee. The look—described by offensive coordinator Frank Reich as “05 personnel”—had Smith remarking that he hadn’t been on the field with that many tight ends at once. Reich said analytics searches found no evidence of the package happening in at least 20 years. Rookie Kenyon Sadiq started set to Smith’s right, while Mason Taylor was wide right and Jeremy Ruckert, Jelani Woods, and Andrew Beck spread out wide left. Coach Aaron Glenn called the “tight end room” a weapon as the formation contributed to a 7-yard Smith run and preceded a too-many-men penalty on a Breece Hall score.
