Overview
- Aaron Glenn has not named a starter after benching Justin Fields at halftime in a 13-6 loss to Carolina, and he said he will consult other coaches before deciding.
- ESPN and other outlets report Glenn is moving toward naming Tyrod Taylor the starter, with an announcement expected Wednesday ahead of the Bengals game.
- Fields’ recent slump includes 46 first‑half passing yards and three sacks on Sunday after a London game with 45 yards and nine sacks; he is at 63.7% for 845 yards and four TDs this season.
- Taylor’s relief appearance produced 10-of-22 passing for 126 yards and two interceptions; over 7+ quarters this season he has 379 yards with three touchdowns and three interceptions.
- At the NFL owners meeting, Johnson praised the defense and special teams and criticized the passing game—“If we can just complete a pass, it would look good”—as the 0-7 Jets remain the league’s only winless team with no first‑half touchdowns in six straight games.
