Scores 30-yard pick-six off Tua
Echols had two tackles (one solo) and an interception, which he returned 30 yards for a touchdown, in Friday's 34-13 loss to the Dolphins.
ANALYSIS
After converting a fake punt with a catch in the previous game, Echols made another splashy play, getting the Jets on the board with a pick-six in the final minute of the first half. However, the Jets surrendered a pick-six of their own on the final play before halftime, taking the air out of the team's sails and ultimately rendering Echols' touchdown inconsequential to the game's outcome.

2021 Fantasy Outlook
Echols was selected in the sixth round of the 2021 draft by the Jets. A lack of established players ahead of him on the cornerback depth chart could lead to a surprisingly large role for Echols if he proves to be NFL-ready, but he'll likely start his career working mostly on special teams.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Likely starter to begin career
Echols is the frontrunner to start opposite Bryce Hall after the Jets surprisingly waived fellow cornerback Bless Austin, Connor Hughes of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Echols, a rookie sixth-round pick, is competing with undrafted rookie Isaiah Dunn for the spot. The Jets' lack of established cornerback options is the primary reason the likes of Echols and Dunn are in contention for starting spots as rookies, though their development throughout camp is what led the team to feel comfortable cutting Austin, who had a starting role as a second-year player in 2020.
