Jets Talking to a "Number of Veteran Quarterbacks"
New York Jets head coach Aaron Glenn said he has no update on free-agent quarterback Russell Wilson and said that the team is talking to a "number of veteran quarterbacks," according to Rich Cimini of ESPN. Glenn added that he's "happy" with the current QB room, which includes veteran starter Geno Smith, rookie Cade Clubnik, Brady Cook, and Bailey Zappe. The Jets brought Wilson in for a visit last week and have reportedly offered him a contract for the 2026 season as a backup to Smith, but Wilson is non-committal on his NFL future and is considering getting into television for the upcoming season. The 37-year-old 10-time Pro Bowler and former Super Bowl champion with the Seattle Seahawks has been a shell of his former self since his final season in Seattle back in 2021. He's bounced around with the Denver Broncos, Pittsburgh Steelers, and New York Giants since then and threw for 831 yards with three touchdowns and three interceptions in six appearances (three starts) with New York in 2025. Wilson is no longer worth holding in dynasty leagues, as he'll be the clear backup to Smith if he signs with the Jets.
