Jets Bench Fields, Turn to Taylor
Update: 2025-11-18
Description
The New York Jets have made a significant change at quarterback, benching Justin Fields and promoting Tyrod Taylor to the starting role. Fields, a former first-round draft pick, struggled in his nine starts this season, completing 128 of 204 pass attempts for 1,259 yards, 7 touchdowns, and 1 interception, while adding 4 rushing touchdowns. Despite his numbers, Fields performance didnt translate into wins, leading to his benching. Taylor, a thirty-six-year-old quarterback, will aim to bring a new dynamic to the Jets offense as they move forward, with his first major test being a rematch against the Patriots in Week Seventeen.
