Secures interception in win
Echols recorded five total tackles (four solo), an interception and a pass defensed in Sunday's 24-17 win over the Titans.
ANALYSIS
Echols filled in for D.J. Reed (knee) as one of the New York's starting outside cornerbacks, picking off Will Levis in the second quarter. The 26-year-old played all 66 of the team's defensive snaps and will likely operate in a similar role if Reed is unable to go again on Thursday Night Football in Week 3 versus the Patriots.

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.
