Cade Klubnik Cade Klubnik Struggles in preseason finale
Fri, Aug 28, 2026, 10:21 PM
Klubnik completed six of 13 passes for 59 yards, no touchdowns and one interception in Friday's 23-6 preseason loss to the Giants. He also rushed once for no gain.
Analysis: Klubnik played the entire first half of Friday's preseason finale. The rookie fourth-round pick out of Clemson wasn't particularly sharp, but his teammates didn't help him much, either, as Klubnik had a 25-yard pass in the two-minute drill wiped out by an ineligible lineman downfield, and an offensive pass interference penalty two plays later knocked the Jets out of field-goal range. Despite Friday's forgettable performance, Klubnik's entire body of work in training camp and the preseason has likely earned him the backup job behind Geno Smith over Brady Cook and Bailey Zappe. Cook and Zappe combined for 38 passing yards in the second half Friday. |

Cam Camper Cam Camper Has possible concussion
Fri, Aug 28, 2026, 9:19 PM
Camper is being evaluated for a possible concussion and is questionable to return to Friday's preseason finale against the Giants.
Analysis: Camper sustained a head injury in the second half of Friday's contest. The wide receiver will be evaluated by an independent neurologist. If Camper is deemed to have suffered a concussion, he will be placed into the league's five-step protocol. The 25-year-old will likely be waived come Sunday's cutdown day if he is not placed on season-ending injured reserve. |

Suffers neck injury
Fri, Aug 28, 2026, 8:44 PM
Trayanum (neck) has been ruled out for the remainder of Friday night's preseason finale against the Giants.
Analysis: Trayanum suffered a possibly significant neck injury in the third quarter and is on his way to the hospital. The running back remains conscious and in control of his extremities. The undrafted free agent out of Toledo signed with the Jets in early May and is competing for a depth role. |

Done for Friday night
Fri, Aug 28, 2026, 7:54 PM
Cooper (shoulder) has been ruled out for the remainder of Friday night's preseason finale against the Giants.
Analysis: Cooper exited the first half of Friday's game due to a shoulder injury. The rookie sixth-rounder likely remains set to make the 53-man roster as one of the reserve options on the offensive line. Xavier Hill may get some reps at left guard in Cooper's stead. |

Questionable with foot issue
Fri, Aug 28, 2026, 7:43 PM
Ossai (foot) is questionable to return to Friday's preseason finale against the Giants, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.
Analysis: Ossai exited the first half of Friday's contest with an apparent foot injury. The defensive end was removed from the Jets' active/PUP list Aug. 11 with an undisclosed injury. Another issue for the veteran is not good news, and if he cannot return, Paschal Ekeji will likely see more snaps to round out Friday's game. |

Geno Smith Geno Smith Not playing Friday
Thu, Aug 27, 2026, 8:43 PM
Smith will not play in Friday's preseason finale against the Giants, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.
Analysis: Smith and most of the Jets' starters will sit out Friday's contest as the team prepares for Week 1 against the Titans on Sunday, Sept. 13. The quarterback played the opening drive of the team's preseason win over Pittsburgh on Aug. 21, completing all seven of his passes for 65 yards and a touchdown. That will end up being the only action he sees during the preseason, and Week 1 will be his first regular-season start with the Jets since 2016. |

Sam Scott Sam Scott Let go with injury settlement
Tue, Aug 25, 2026, 5:48 PM
The Jets waived Scott (undisclosed) with an injury settlement Tuesday.
Analysis: Scott cleared waivers before reverting to the Jets' injured reserve list and is now a free agent. The former linebacker can now seek out new teams to help out offensively, defensively or most likely on special teams as soon as he regains his health. |

Kenyon Sadiq Kenyon Sadiq Unlikely to have big Week 1 role
Tue, Aug 25, 2026, 2:20 PM
Jets offensive coordinator Frank Reich said Tuesday that Sadiq (hernia) will be worked in slowly at the start of the regular season, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Sadiq has barely practiced with the team since being selected with the 16th overall pick in the 2026 Draft. He underwent hernia surgery in the spring and then suffered a setback that has limited him to side work throughout training camp and the preseason. Mason Taylor has been a standout with the first-team offense and figures to open the season as the clear TE1 for the Jets. |

Isaiah Davis Isaiah Davis Logs first on-field work in weeks
Tue, Aug 25, 2026, 12:55 PM
Davis (knee) worked out on a side field with a trainer during Tuesday's practice, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Davis has missed the Jets' first two preseason contests due to a knee injury he suffered in early August. Tuesday's development marks his first notable on-field work since then, but it remains to be seen if he'll be healthy enough to suit up for Friday's exhibition against the Giants. With No. 1 RB Breece Hall (groin) also working on the side as of Monday, New York's backfield is getting healthier as Week 1 approaches, but at the moment Braelon Allen is the only healthy back among the team's top three players at the position. |

Jason Sanders Jason Sanders No remaining competition as Jets kicker
Tue, Aug 25, 2026, 9:43 AM
Sanders appears to be the frontrunner to open the season as the Jets' kicker after Cade York was waived Tuesday, Ryan Dunleavy of the New York Post reports.
Analysis: The Jets brought in both Sanders and York on one-year deals to compete for the kicking job. Sanders' longer record of NFL success gave him an early edge, and he ended up pulling away after converting both of his point-after attempts as well as field-goal attempts from 39 and 47 yards in the first two preseason contests. Jets special teams coach Chris Banjo said Tuesday that Sanders "has won the job" at placekicker, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports. |

Reverts to IR with New York
Mon, Aug 24, 2026, 9:18 PM
Voorhis (undisclosed) reverted to injured reserve with the Jets on Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Analysis: Voorhis went unclaimed on waivers after being waived/injured by New York on Monday. The defensive lineman will now be forced to miss the entire 2026 campaign while on IR, unless he can reach an injury settlement with the Jets. |

Sam Scott Sam Scott Moved to injured reserve
Mon, Aug 24, 2026, 7:46 PM
Scott (undisclosed) reverted to the Jets' injured reserve Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Analysis: Scott was waived with an injury designation Sunday and did not get claimed by another team. As such, Scott has moved to the Jets' IR and will be required to sit for the entire 2026 season unless an injury settlement is reached. |

Caullin Lacy Caullin Lacy Reverts to IR
Mon, Aug 24, 2026, 7:39 PM
Lacy (undisclosed) reverted to the Jets' injured reserve Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Analysis: Lacy was not claimed by another team after being waived/injured by the Jets on Sunday. The move to IR means he'll be forced to miss the entire 2026 season unless an injury settlement is reached. |

Kenyon Sadiq Kenyon Sadiq Aiming to be available Week 1
Mon, Aug 24, 2026, 1:44 PM
Coach Aaron Gleen said Monday that the Jets are targeting Week 1 for Sadiq (hernia) to return to action, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Sadiq underwent hernia surgery during the offseason program and then had a setback in his recovery early on at training camp. The extent of his activity in the meantime has been work on a side field, so individual and then team drills will be the next steps for the rookie first-round pick. Once Sadiq is healthy, he and 2025 second-rounder Mason Taylor will serve as the Jets' top TE duo. |

Breece Hall Breece Hall Works on side Monday
Mon, Aug 24, 2026, 12:11 PM
Hall (groin) took part in agility drills on the side at Monday's practice, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.
Analysis: Hall has been sidelined since suffering a minor groin strain at last Monday's session, which was expected to keep him out of drills for 2-to-3 weeks. Considering he was "moving well" this Monday, per Costello, Hall may be ahead of the curve in his recovery. In any case, Hall seems likely to miss Friday's preseason game against the Giants, with the focus instead on Week 1 at Tennessee on Sunday, Sept. 13. |

Dominic Richardson Dominic Richardson Signs with New York
Sun, Aug 23, 2026, 4:10 PM
The Jets signed Richardson to a contract Sunday.
Analysis: Richardson was waived by the Titans last Wednesday and went unclaimed. The running back likely caught on with the Jets due to the injuries to Breece Hall (groin) and Isaiah Davis (knee). Richardson is likely just a preseason depth signing and will not have much sticking power with the team past August. |

Cade York Cade York Misses in first half
Sat, Aug 22, 2026, 12:31 PM
York missed his sole field-goal attempt, but converted a PAT in Friday night's preseason game against the Steelers.
Analysis: York missed from 59 yards in the second quarter, ending his night. Jason Sanders took over in the second half, making a 39-yard field goal and finishing the game with a PAT in the fourth quarter. York was called upon for the harder kick, but the failure likely still dings the kicker compared to Sanders' perfect night. |

Cade Klubnik Cade Klubnik Follows Smith in Friday's preseason win
Sat, Aug 22, 2026, 12:30 PM
Klubnik completed 10 of 14 passes for 75 yards and recorded a 16-yard carry during the Jets' 17-0 preseason win over the Steelers on Friday.
Analysis: Geno Smith commanded the Jets on the first offensive series and led a 10-play, 69-yard drive that ended with a 13-yard touchdown pass to Jelani Woods. Klubnik took over on the second series and ended up playing more snaps than he did in the Jets' preseason opener against the Buccaneers. However, he could not lead the offense on any scoring drives, and part of the issue for the rookie fourth-rounder was that he was playing with the second-team offensive line. Klubnik appears to be ahead of both Brady Cook and Bailey Zappe for the backup QB job behind Geno Smith heading into the Jets' preseason finale against the Giants next Friday. |

Jason Sanders Jason Sanders Perfect in win
Sat, Aug 22, 2026, 12:28 PM
Sanders converted his sole field-goal attempt and only PAT in Friday night's preseason game against the Steelers.
Analysis: Sanders contributed four of the Jets' 17 points, making his 39-yard field goal in the fourth quarter. Cade York initially started the game for the Jets, missing a field goal in the second quarter. Sanders' performance likely further increased his chances of securing the starting role for the 2026 regular season. |

Isaiah Davis Isaiah Davis Doesn't play vs. Pittsburgh
Sat, Aug 22, 2026, 12:24 PM
Davis (knee) did not play in the Jets' 17-0 preseason win over the Steelers on Friday.
Analysis: Davis has missed the Jets' first two preseason games due to a knee injury he sustained in training camp practice in early August. He's trending on the doubtful side of suiting up for the Jets' preseason finale against the Giants next Friday, but he could be available for the regular-season opener against the Titans on Sunday, Sept. 13. With Breece Hall (groin) also sidelined, Braelon Allen will serve as the Jets' top running back in practices, with Kene Nwangwu, Chip Trayanum and Sam Scott all in line for additional reps. |
