"The Jets' Tyrod Taylor completed 26-of-36 passes, and finished with 197 passing yards. He also threw two touchdown passes more than Mayfield. He rushed eight times for 48 yards. Kim Klement Neitzel-Imagn Images The New York Jets' first-year brain trust of general manager Darren Mougey and head coach Aaron Glenn see Justin Fields as the potential starting quarterback of the future, but some members of Gang Green's roster have reportedly already seen enough."
"Glenn especially does not see it that way. He doubled down on keeping Fields in the starter's role on Monday despite a miserable showing in London on Sunday against the Denver Broncos. In that game, he completed just nine of 17 passes for a measley 47 yards while getting sacked nine times most of them his fault for holding onto the ball for too long."
"With it, the Jets are now 0-6 for the third time in franchise history (1996, 2020) and are the first team to start 0-6 while averaging less than 150 net passing yards per game since the 2005 Houston Texans (h/t Hughes). Fields' numbers have been mediocre, but the promise of creating a dual-threat quarterback given his mobility is what is keeping him under center for the time being."
Tyrod Taylor produced a notable backup performance, completing 26 of 36 passes for 197 yards, two touchdowns, and rushing eight times for 48 yards. Several Jets players reportedly consider Taylor the best quarterback on the roster. General manager Darren Mougey and head coach Aaron Glenn continue to view Justin Fields as the franchise starter of the future. Fields struggled in London, completing nine of 17 passes for 47 yards and being sacked nine times. The Jets dropped to 0-6 and are averaging under 150 net passing yards per game, while Fields' mobility remains the reason he continues to start.
