"Did I stutter? The Jets are horrible." 😳 @stephenasmith responds to Garrett Wilson's comments 🍿
There's a 43% chance QB Ty Simpson will be available for the #Jets at 33, per Draft Predictor (via @SethWalder). Would they pull the trigger if he's still there? Risky, considering lack of experience, but I know they were impressed by his football character/smarts in recent private meeting + workout.
How close was Wink Martindale to being the Jets’ defensive coordinator? “I think it was close. I’ve always respected and I like Aaron Glenn. He’s a good dude, and we think a lot alike on a lot of similar things defensively. But just to be honest with you, I think it was one of those decisions that was out of his hands, and we’ll just leave it at that. But that’s OK. Wherever you’re at is where you’re supposed to be.” Watch the full Talkin’ Ball with Pat Leonard episode on @YouTube, premiering NOW youtu.be/qgPWXarXmWM?si…
Despite speculation, the Jaguars have not been interested in trading Brian Thomas Jr.
Not against this strategy. #Jets need a new plan A,B, and C at QB to help tread water this season. But Carson Wentz… 🤢
Trade: the Raiders are sending QB Geno Smith and a 2026 7th-round pick to the New York Jets in exchange for a 2026 6th-round pick, per ESPN sources. Smith returns to the team for which he started his NFL career for in 2013.
The #Jets might not target just one quarterback in free agency. Belief from agents who met with them at the NFL Combine is that they prefer to add two -- if they can. It's similar to what the #Giants did a year ago (Russell Wilson, Jameis Winston). Kyler Murray was discussed, but he is expected to sign with the Vikings, per sources. No Kirk Cousins, but watch Geno Smith & Carson Wentz. There is interest there. Jacoby Brissett, too, if Cardinals can be convinced to part. Was told that's "doubtful," with Jimmy Garoppolo expected to stay in LA. JG signing with the Cardinals would change that. Wentz might surprise some, because of the notion Frank Reich/Wentz relationship fell apart in Indianapolis. From my understanding, that was more GM/owner, not coach. The two remain very close. One source told me that the QB Reich prefers is Wentz. A quote from another: "No one loves Wentz more than Frank." We'll see what #NYJ can get done.
