The New York Jets’ 2023 season definitely hasn’t gone as planned. Despite preseason expectations of Super Bowl contention falling woefully flat amid the season-ending injury to Aaron Rodgers, though, the team has no plans to make major changes in the front office or on the sidelines in 2024. Jets owner Woody Johnson has committed to […]

The New York Jets are doing their best to succeed with backup quarterbacks at the helm of the team in Aaron Rodgers’ stead, but it hasn’t been easy. Former Northwestern Wildcat and Big Ten star Trevor Siemian, an NFL journeyman, is expected to start for the team against the Commanders on Sunday. The Jets are […]

The New York Jets have had a troubling 2023-24 football season. The Jets are 5-9 and sit third in the AFC East. New York had high hopes after Aaron Rodgers was traded to the team in April 2023. However, Rodgers suffered an Achilles injury that held him out of the 2023 season. Nonetheless, the team […]

The New York Jets are coming off of a 30-point loss on Sunday to Tua Tagovailoa and the Miami Dolphins, a result that eliminated the team from playoff contention. Four way-too-early Jets targets for the 2024 NFL Draft were revealed. A veteran defensive lineman became the team’s latest injury casualty and is now out for […]

Zach Wilson remains in concussion protocol, but the quarterback still could start Sunday when the New York Jets host the Washington Commanders. “We’ll see,” coach Robert Saleh answered Wednesday when asked if Wilson is out this week. “Everything has improved, so I’m not closing the door on that yet.” QB Zach Wilson remains in concussion […]

Even good things eventually turn sour for the New York Jets this season. In the midst of, perhaps, his best season in the NFL, veteran defensive lineman Quinton Jefferson landed on injured reserve Wednesday and will not play again in 2023. Jefferson sustained a hip injury in the first half of a miserable 30-0 loss […]

Robert Saleh is on the hot seat as head coach of the disappointing New York Jets. But amid questions about his job security after a blowout loss to the Miami Dolphins, Saleh remained calm and cool. “(There are) two types of coaches: those who’ve been fired and those who are about to get fired,” Saleh […]

The New York Jets have been in constant quarterback purgatory since Aaron Rodgers’ injury. With Zach Wilson now suffering an injury of his own, the Jets are once again looking for answers at QB. Robert Saleh confirmed that Zach Wilson is in the concussion protocol. If he doesn’t clear the protocol, the Jets will start […]

The New York Jets had no answers in an embarrassing 30-0 “ass whooping” loss to the Miami Dolphins on Sunday. Fittingly, this terrible effort eliminated the Jets from playoff contention for the 13th consecutive season. Cornerback D.J. Reed, who may have played his worst game in two seasons with the Jets, summed things up perfectly. […]

The New York Jets were thoroughly embarrassed in a 30-0 loss to the Miami Dolphins in their Week 15 game Sunday. It was fitting that the Jets were eliminated from playoff contention with such a complete defeat. It’s now 13 seasons and counting since the Jets last qualified for the NFL postseason. It is the […]

There wasn’t really much for Robert Saleh to say after their 30-0 loss to the Miami Dolphins on Sunday. Nor did he offer up a good reason why they fell flat after the Jets’ uplifting win a week prior against the Houston Texans. “It’s a week-to-week league,” Saleh said about an embarrassing loss following a […]

Either Robert Saleh didn’t have any updates about a possible Aaron Rodgers return to the New York Jets this season, or perhaps he wasn’t interested in sharing information. But reporters were left trying to read the tea leaves for specifics about the 40-year-old’s comeback from a ruptured Achilles. When asked if Rodgers will be more […]

The New York Jets came out of nowhere and smashed the Houston Texans for an impressive 30-6 win. Zach Wilson let it rip throwing for 301 yards and two touchdowns. The win keeps New York in the playoff race, which means the hope of an Aaron Rodgers’ return is still alive. However, head coach Robert […]

Zach Wilson promised to have fun and “let it rip” this week for the New York Jets. And he did that, and more, when he returned to the starting lineup to lead the Jets to a stunning 30-6 win against the Houston Texans. Jets coach Robert Saleh stood up and took notice of the 24-year-old’s […]

Teams heading in opposite directions meet Sunday, when the New York Jets host the Houston Texans at MetLife Stadium. Whether the home team can end a five-game losing streak is among the bold Jets Week 14 predictions for their meeting with the Texans. The Jets (4-8) haven’t won since October 29, a 13-10 overtime victory […]

It’s been a rough past few weeks in a difficult first season with the New York Jets for Allen Lazard. But a fresh opportunity awaits him in Week 14 when the Jets host the Houston Texans. A healthy scratch from the lineup two weeks ago and targeted only once (an incompletion) in last week’s miserable […]

Breece Hall remains limited in practice and on the New York Jets injury report for their Week 14 game against the Houston Texans. But that doesn’t necessarily mean New York’s top running back will miss the game Sunday. “He’s dealing with an ankle, it’s just trying to get him comfortable,” Jets coach Robert Saleh explained […]

Zach Wilson has been a magnet for controversy since he was taken out of Brigham Young University in 2021 as the number two overall pick. The 6-foot-2, 214-pound quarterback’s lofty draft position has led to a career filled with high expectations and difficulty living up to them. Wilson was trolled after an embarrassing loss against […]

Robert Saleh offered a terse reply Wednesday to Aaron Rodgers’ recent criticism about repeated “leaks” in the New York Jets organization. “I don’t think it’s an attack on the organization, but I always appreciate Aaron’s thoughts and comments,” Saleh said, per Rick Cimini of ESPN. When asked directly if he believed the Jets had a […]

Aaron Rodgers is pissed about the most recent Zach Wilson rumors, as the New York Jets’ latest soap opera plot twist unfolds this week. Rodgers reacted harshly to a report in The Athletic stating that unnamed sources said Wilson is “hesitant” about returning to his role as starting quarterback after being benched two weeks ago […]

Robert Saleh continued his search for a quarterback that can spark the New York Jets’ moribund offense following his team’s 13-8 loss to the Atlanta Falcons. Saleh replaced starter Tim Boyle with veteran Trevor Siemian in the fourth quarter, after Boyle was intercepted to end a third quarter drive. But Saleh still has no answers. […]

The New York Jets have been in quarterback purgatory since losing Aaron Rodgers in the first week of the season. The Jets underwent yet another quarterback change in Week 13 against the Falcons. Head coach Robert Saleh decided to bench Tim Boyle in favor of Trevor Siemian, via Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network. The […]

The Jets have been led by Zach Wilson and most recently Tim Boyle at the quarterback position this season, but the original plan revolved around former Packers star and Green Bay legend Aaron Rodgers. Rodgers’ infamous Achilles injury has left fans wondering what might come next for the former California Golden Bears star quarterback and […]

Allen Lazard is not having a good season for the New York Jets. But that didn’t stop him from being surprised when told he’d be inactive for New York’s 34-13 loss to the Miami Dolphins last week on Black Friday. “I was a little caught off guard,” Lazard said Wednesday. “But after talking to (coach […]

Allen Lazard and Mekhi Becton are expected to return for the New York Jets in Week 13 when they host the Atlanta Falcons. Of course, this news doesn’t trump the Jets opening the 21-day practice window for Aaron Rodgers just 11 weeks after surgery to repair his ruptured Achilles. But it is significant for a […]

The beleaguered New York Jets and their injury-ravaged offensive line could get a massive boost in Week 13 when they host the Atlanta Falcons. Starting tackles Duane Brown and Mekhi Becton very well could be back in the lineup for New York, coach Robert Saleh said Saturday. “Hopefully, we can get a little bit healthy […]

Aaron Rodgers is back with the New York Jets. Though that doesn’t mean he’s ready to play or even practice yet, the future Hall of Famer is back full-time at the Jets facility. And even that is a big step in his recovery from Achilles surgery in mid-September. Jets coach Robert Saleh informed reporters of […]

New York Jets head coach Robert Saleh is hoping to get some more production from his running back Breece Hall. Saleh is being a bit critical of Hall’s play following another disappointing loss for the Jets Friday to the Miami Dolphins. Saleh is hoping Hall will get more physical, hard runs than going for a […]

Sports are no different than life; sometimes, the jokes just write themselves. Never was that truer than when Robert Saleh and the New York Jets (no strangers to hilarious moments) allowed a pick-six to the Miami Dolphins during their Week 12 loss. In the waning seconds of the first half, the Jets’ newly appointed starting […]

So what did we learn on Friday afternoon? I learned that the NFL struck gold with this Black Friday game, and there’s no reason why we should stop at just one game. Give me a 3 pm game and a 7 pm game and that’s what I call a perfect late-November afternoon. I also learned […]

On Friday afternoon, head coach Robert Saleh and the New York Jets dropped to a disappointing record of 4-7 on the 2023-24 NFL season with a frustrating home loss to their divisional rivals, the Miami Dolphins. Saleh made a switch for this contest at the quarterback position from Zach Wilson to Tim Boyle, but the […]

Not surprisingly, Tim Boyle wasn’t the answer for what ails the New York Jets during their 34-13 loss to the Miami Dolphins on Black Friday. But his failures replacing Zach Wilson at quarterback in Week 12 headline the takeaways from the Jets’ fourth straight loss. Boyle “guided” the Jets to 159 yards of total offense […]

Allen Lazard was one of the top free agent signings by the New York Jets this past offseason. But that didn’t stop coach Robert Saleh from making Lazard a healthy inactive for the Jets’ 34-13 loss to the Miami Dolphins on Black Friday. Despite Lazard’s struggles this season, it was a surprising move considering the […]

Despite another impotent performance by the New York Jets offense in a 34-13 loss to the Miami Dolphins on Black Friday, Nathaniel Hackett will continue to call plays moving forward. Jets coach Robert Saleh confirmed as much postgame after another unimaginative and unsuccessful day at the office for Hackett. However, Saleh seemed stumped when asked […]

When Josh Allen was outgunning Zach Wilson and the Buffalo Bills secondary was just toying with the New York Jets, Robert Saleh had seen enough. He made the call to bench Zach Wilson and put him on the third string. All of this was to keep their postseason hopes alive and hopefully get Aaron Rodgers […]

The New York Jets need all the support they need to keep their postseason hopes alive. Robert Saleh already made the tough call to place Zach Wilson on the third string which means other players can step up. Unfortunately, one notable blow to these hopes was when Mekhi Becton suffered an injury when facing the […]

Zach Wilson was benched, and that was just the start of the lowlights in the New York Jets’ embarrassing 32-6 loss to the Buffalo Bills in Week 11. Beaten soundly on both sides of the ball, the Jets were as uncompetitive as they’ve been all season. So, the takeaways from their loss Sunday are not […]

On Sunday afternoon, Zach Wilson and the New York Jets dropped to a disappointing 4-6 on the 2023 NFL season with a crushing 32-6 annihilation on the road at the hands of their divisional rivals, the Buffalo Bills. While the Jets were able to keep things (relatively) competitive in the first half, the floodgates opened […]

Something’s got to give when the New York Jets visit the Buffalo Bills in Week 11 on Sunday. The reeling AFC East rivals each badly needs a win to remain relevant in the playoff picture. The Jets (4-5) have lost two in a row after a three-game winning streak. Each defeat was against a mediocre […]
