Justin Fields suffered a dislocated toe during training camp and is currently day-to-day. The injury is not serious, allowing Fields time to recover before the upcoming season opener. Tyrod Taylor will serve as the starting quarterback in Fields' absence. Coach Aaron Glenn expressed relief that Fields' injury isn't major, emphasizing the need to move forward regardless of injuries. The Jets made Fields their key offseason acquisition, aiming to utilize his strengths as a dual-threat quarterback this season.
When anybody goes down, there's a lump in my throat. I hate injuries for any player.
We have an outstanding backup in Tyrod, who's been in this league for around 14 years. So the leadership that he brings, listen, we're all good.
A major injury to Fields would have put a damper on this new coaching staff's plans. The Jets made Fields their major offseason pickup.
We're going to keep moving, no matter what the situation is, no matter what happens with any player that gets hurt.
