Jets Top Browns as Fields' Passing Woes Renew Quarterback Debate

A short week complicates any immediate switch to Tyrod Taylor.

Overview

  • New York beat Cleveland 27-20 for its second win, with Week 10 scoring buoyed by special teams rather than sustained offense.
  • Head coach Aaron Glenn voiced postgame concern about the offense after a sluggish first half despite the result.
  • Justin Fields went 6-of-11 for 54 yards, with 42 coming on a screen to Breece Hall, and the Jets finished with 42 net passing yards, per ESPN.
  • Special teams delivered touchdowns on a 99-yard kickoff return by Kene Nwangwu and a 74-yard punt return by Irvin Williams, while the defense registered six sacks.
  • Analysts urged a move to veteran Tyrod Taylor, but reporting noted the Thursday turnaround and injuries make a midweek change unlikely, with Garrett Wilson leaving after re-injuring a knee and recording no catches.
