Overview

• Aaron Glenn announced the decision Wednesday before the team’s first practice of the week and voiced confidence in Taylor’s preparation and experience.
• Fields sustained the injury when Joey Bosa’s sack drove the back of his head into the turf late in the Week 2 loss to the Bills, marking his first documented NFL concussion.
• Taylor replaced Fields on Sunday and went 7-of-11 for 56 yards and a touchdown; the 15-year veteran is set for his first start since 2023.
• The Jets are expected to elevate practice-squad rookie Brady Cook to the active roster to back up Taylor against Tampa Bay.
• New York enters Sunday 0-2 and visits the 2-0 Buccaneers as it tries to avoid an 0-3 start under its new quarterback.
