Especially with it being a make-or-break season for head coach Aaron Glenn as he enters his second season at the helm.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">Throughout practices each day, updates are shared during the workouts which make for intriguing and important notes.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">In terms of Day 1 of training camp, what stood out the most?<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">Here are <a href=\"\/\" data-t-l=\":b|e|k|\u2691u\" class=\"gnt_ar_b_a\">Jets Wire&#8217;s<\/a> three observations from the first day of training camp:<\/p>\n<p>Top rookie stands out<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">David Bailey was the Jets&#8217; No. 2 overall selection for a reason: He&#8217;s good.

That&#8217;s not all too surprising, though. Throughout the NFL, it&#8217;s typical for the offense to need more time to get on the same page&#8230; so, patience.<\/p>\n<p>Injury quelled<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">Another promising rookie for the Jets is second-round pick D&#8217;Angelo Ponds.
