Jets confident center Joe Tippmann will figure out timing issues

Aaron Rodgers and the Jets were driving during Saturday’s “Green and White” scrimmage when the march was disrupted by a mistake Robert Saleh hopes to correct before the regular season begins.

Starting center Joe Tippmann snapped the ball over Rodgers’ head for what turned out to be a loss of 22 yards.

“We gotta continue working with it,” Saleh said after practice. “[Tippmann] had a couple of good days, and today with the environment a little bit heightened, it got away from him. So we’ll continue working with him.”

Tippmann played center in college at Wisconsin, but the 2023 second-round pick spent several games playing right guard as a rookie last season with the Jets before shifting back to the middle of the offensive line when various injuries arose.

Tippmann and Rodgers have been working on their timing during camp after the 40-year-old quarterback missed virtually all of last season with an Achilles injury.

“There’s some technical stuff in there,” Saleh said. “It’s not mental. He’s not flustered. Like I said, we’re trying to maximize his athleticism, asking to do some things from an athletic standpoint.

“We’re pushing him, and he’s just gotta learn the timing and the rhythm and all that stuff. He’ll get it under control. It’s one of the least things I’m worried about.”

Cornerback Sauce Gardner didn’t participate in the scrimmage.

He had been excused from Friday’s practice, Saleh said, because “he had some personal things he had to take care of.”

Gardner’s return flight was canceled Friday night due to inclement weather “until [Saturday] morning, and I wasn’t going to expose him to injury after traveling,” Saleh added.

Cornerback Michael Carter II is expected to be sidelined “a week or two” with an ankle issue, according to Saleh.

“Nothing long-term, nothing is broken, he’s just gotta work through the ankle,” he said.
