"The Jets might have made a big mistake not trading for Kyler Murray. They are no strangers to scrutiny over how they conduct business or what their definition of success is, since they don't see much of it."
"The Cardinals have received the most backlash, however, with an anonymous NFL executive slamming the NFC West team for not making the better decision with their former quarterback, while also questioning the Jets' motive."
In the 2026 offseason, the Patriots are not seeking a new head coach or quarterback, unlike the Dolphins and Jets. The Dolphins hired Jeff Hafley but released quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, creating a roster gap. The Jets, uninterested in Justin Fields, traded for Geno Smith instead of pursuing Kyler Murray, a decision met with criticism. The Cardinals also faced backlash for releasing Murray, leading to questions about the Jets' lack of action. This situation may benefit the Patriots in maintaining their division lead.
