• Jets' Justin Fields: Serving as emergency QB in Week 16

  19H ago • By RotoWire

  Fields (knee) is inactive as the Jets' emergency No. 3 quarterback for Sunday's game in New Orleans. New York will go with Brady Cook as its starting quarterback for the second week in a row, after neither Tyrod Taylor (groin/knee) and Fields (knee) were available for last Sunday's loss to the Jaguars. Both Taylor and Fields took part in all three of the Jets' practices this week, but Taylor will get the nod as Cook's top backup after putting in a full session Friday, whereas Fields was limited in each practice. The Jets haven't indicated that Cook will retain the starting gig for Weeks 17 and 18, but a strong showing against New Orleans would bolster his odds of holding down the job for the rest of the season.

• Jets' Justin Fields: Not seen at practice Thursday

  11D ago • By RotoWire

  Fields (knee) wasn't spotted at practice Thursday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports. The same applies to Tyrod Taylor (groin), leaving Brady Cook and practice-squad member Adrian Martinez to handle the Jets' QB reps in Thursday's session. Friday's practice thus looms large in terms of the team's Week 15 signal-caller plans, but at this stage looming back-to-back 'DNPs' cloud the statuses of both Fields and Taylor.

  Coach Aaron Glenn said that Tyrod Taylor (groin) and Fields (knee) won't practice Wednesday. With both players set to miss practice, the Jets' Week 15 QB situation is very much up in the air. Per Glenn, Brady Cook will handle first-team reps Wednesday, with Adrian Martinez now also in the team's signal-caller mix as Sunday's game against the Jaguars approaches. Both Fields and Taylor are set to be re-evaluated as the week progresses.

• Jets' Justin Fields: May miss Week 14

  17D ago • By RotoWire

  Coach Aaron Glenn said Friday that Fields is dealing with a sore knee, and "there's a chance" he'll be inactive Sunday against the Dolphins, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports. Fields has served as the Jets' backup quarterback to Tyrod Taylor the last two games, but a knee injury that resulted in a limited practice Thursday now is threatening his availability for Week 14. If Fields ends up sitting out this weekend, practice-squad member Brady Cook will serve as the No. 2 behind Taylor.
