“Izzy is rb2. Any veteran brought in will have to be ok w/ being rb3.”OPEN THE ORIGINAL POST ↗
What we’re scoring
Original veteran-RB thread and explicit future veteran-arrival condition establish a projected season role, not merely current depth. Abanikanda did not take a Jets regular-season snap in 2024.
The ruling
Abanikanda did not appear in any Jets game in 2024 before the team released him on December 2. Braelon Allen played ahead of him from the opener.

Abanikanda was inactive for the first twelve games and released December 2 without playing for the Jets. Zero appearances contradicts a substantial relief rushing role. Preserve the earlier broad role wording rather than importing the later explicit RB2 rank.

Recovered quoted practice caption identifies Izzy. Later unscored repetition of the existing Abanikanda RB2 original; no inference from an unidentified runner remains.
