overedge triple or strong onelobe?

The central radio emission seems to overlap with an IR source but if so is highly asymmetrical, perhaps a hybrid or very strong corejet as suggested in the comments. There is an overedge source on the right hand side that might be the source instead, which would make this the left hand plume of a wide triple and the central emission is so angled that this also seems possible (however I do not see the FIRST ID to check).

The FIRST image suggest the central radio object is all there is (the other radio objects seem unrelated):
SDSS J120339.20+275537.2 seems to be the core: it has a photoz of ~0.165, and a disk morphology, perhaps even an Eos (although its color suggests not much active, on-going star-formation). If so, and if the bright radio source is indeed physically related, it could be well worth following up ... disk galaxies with radio jets/lobes are exceedingly rare! 😃

This is another beautiful example where there is a weak lobe on the other side of the core/black hole, but it has no small-scale structure, so it is only visible in NVSS (click the button). So it's a #triple of which only part is visible in FIRST.
