2026 NFL draft: Safety not at combine has top-30 visit with the Jets
TL;DR
Texas Tech safety Cole Wisniewski, who was not invited to the NFL combine, is set for a top-30 visit with the New York Jets. He is projected to be a mid-round selection in the 2026 NFL draft, with the Jets looking to bolster their safety position.
The New York Jets are slated to have a top-30 visit with an intriguing 2026 NFL draft prospect because of a snubbing the player received.
Texas Tech safety Cole Wisniewski was not invited to this year's NFL combine. Even so, he has at least five teams inviting him in for a pre-draft visit and according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, the Jets are one of them:
Wisniewski could be a mid-round selection during the 2026 draft but is more likely a Day 3 option.
The Jets have made a few moves this offseason addressing the safety position, most notably acquiring defensive back Minkah Fitzpatrick. While a safety, Fitzpatrick said he will likely play more of a slot defender role in New York, leaving space for another addition at safety.
A transfer from North Dakota State prior to last season, Wisniewski put up 78 tackles, including six for loss, with a sack, six passes defended and two forced fumbles in 2025 in 14 games played.
Jets Wire will continue to provide updates throughout the 2026 offseason.
