Jets' QB Turmoil Deepens as Taylor Hurts Groin, Rookie Cook Debuts in Playoff-Ending Loss

Aaron Glenn will wait on medical evaluations before naming a Week 15 starter.

Overview

  • The Jets fell 34-10 to the Dolphins, dropped to 3-10 and were eliminated from playoff contention, extending their postseason drought to 15 seasons.
  • Tyrod Taylor exited after six plays with a groin injury, and his availability is uncertain as his durability history again comes under scrutiny.
  • Justin Fields was inactive with knee soreness after being limited late in the practice week, and Glenn said there has been no change in his status.
  • Undrafted rookie Brady Cook, on his third practice-squad elevation, went 14-of-30 for 163 yards with two interceptions and six sacks; a fourth elevation would require a 53-man roster spot.
  • Reporting indicates the Jets are expected to target both a drafted quarterback and a veteran bridge in 2026 as leadership reassesses the position.
