McCrary-Ball Shines with Historic Game | New York Jets News

Marcelino McCrary-Ball is proving he belongs on the Jets’ 53-man roster with a game-changing performance: nine tackles, a forced fumble returned for a TD, and an interception that set up another score. His impact wasn’t just stats—it was clutch plays that earned coach Aaron Glenn’s praise. A third-year linebacker, McCrary-Ball credits his growth to coaching and relentless effort, hitting personal bests in preseason execution. This isn’t his first big moment—he’s had interceptions and fumbles before—but this game marked his highest tackle total in a half and made him one of the few Jets players ever to snag an INT and force a fumble in the same game. With cuts looming, his standout play has dramatically boosted his odds to stay on the roster and contribute on defense and special teams.
