2026 NFL draft: Jets' 5 best quarterback options to watch

Yahoo Sports

The Jets should miss out on the 2026 NFL Draft's top QB prospect, but they'll have plenty of options behind him.

It’s often called the most important position in sports, and nowhere is that more evident than in the NFL. The New York Jets learned that lesson the hard way last season. At various points, Justin Fields, Brady Cook, and Tyrod Taylor all took turns under center.

The results were underwhelming. They produced just three combined wins. No one notched a passer rating over 62.

7. There was a near-even split of 14 touchdowns to 13 interceptions. It wasn’t good enough, and everyone knew it.

The organization promised change, and it delivered something, sort of. Bringing back Geno Smith wasn't what most expected. That brings familiarity, a reunion if you will, but there isn't any certainty.
