"The New England Patriots handled the Jets easily on Thursday Night Football earlier this year, and they'll play them again in a Week 17 game that will be crucial for playoff seeding. That game will likely feature a new quarterback, too, with Tyrod Taylor having taken over for Justin Fields against the Ravens in Week 11. After an injury to Taylor this past week, UDFA Brady Cook got his first action of the year but struggled badly."
"The Jets extended their playoff drought to 15 seasons straight, one of the most demoralizing streaks in sports. Aaron Glenn and his new staff, no doubt, are looking to rebuild. They traded away Sauce Gardner and Quinnen Williams in exchange for a bundle of picks over the next few years, and they've got cash to spend, north of $100 million this offseason."
"Kyler Murray is a prime candidate to be the next Jets' QB. After recovering from injury, head coach Jonathan Gannon has opted to keep him on the sidelines in favor of Jacoby Brissett. The former Patriot has played exceptionally well this year, passing for over 300 yards a game with 16 total touchdowns to 5 interceptions. Nonetheless, one would think the $230 million star would be starting when the time came."
The Jets continue a 15-season playoff drought while undergoing a rebuild under Aaron Glenn and a new staff. The team traded cornerback Sauce Gardner and defensive tackle Quinnen Williams for multiple draft picks and will have over $100 million in available cap space this offseason. Quarterback play has been poor, with just 12 passing touchdowns to 8 interceptions and modest rushing production from Justin Fields and Tyrod Taylor. Taylor replaced Fields but suffered an injury, allowing UDFA Brady Cook limited action that resulted in struggles. Kyler Murray is a potential veteran target if he and Arizona part ways.
