91. Sheldon Richardson

The first round pick of the Jets in 2013 played his first four seasons in New York before the team decided that he was too big of a headache and traded him to the Seattle Seahawks in 2017. After one season with the Jets, Richardson signed with the Minnesota Vikings this past season and is once again an unrestricted free agent.

As a member of the Jets, Richardson was named to one Pro Bowl in 2014, and recorded 18 sacks in his four season. He also managed to bat five balls down at the line of scrimmage, force five fumbles and recorded 40 tackles for loss.

92. Leonard Williams

The 2015 first round pick of the Jets, Leonard Williams has played his entire career up to this point, and is entering the last year of his deal. While there is speculation that the team may explore a trade for Williams, it makes more sense for New York to extend him and give him a portion of their $105 million in cap space.

Throughout his career, Williams has recorded 17 sacks and 32 tackles behind the line of scrimmage in just four seasons; he was also named to a Pro Bowl in 2016. With production like that, Williams is in line for a massive payday, and if the Jets were smart, it should come from them.

93. Marty Lyons

Playing for the Jets for the duration of his NFL career, Marty Lyon makes the list as the most notable player to wear No. 93 for the New York football Jets from 1979-89.

In that span, Lyons recorded 29 sacks for the team, not including the first three years of his career when sacks were not an official stat recorded.

94. John Abraham

Before signing with the Atlanta Falcons in the offseason of 2006 and spending seven seasons there, John Abraham played his first six seasons in New York for the Jets. He finished his career with two seasons with the Arizona Cardinals before calling it a career in 2014.

With the Jets, he was named to three Pro Bowls, while being named an All-Pro in his second season in the NFL in 2001. He finished his tenure with in New York with 53 sacks and 55 tackles behind the line of scrimmage.

95. Rick Lyle

While playing as a rookie for the Cleveland Browns who then became the Baltimore Ravens after owner Art Modell moved the team after 1995, Rick Lyle joined the Jets in 1997 and spent five years in New York. After his time with Jets, Lyle played two years in New York before retiring in 2003.

While playing in New York, Lyle recorded 10 sacks, 10 tackles for loss and two forced fumbles for the Jets from his defensive end spot.
