Justin Fields Benched at Halftime, Replaced by Tyrod Taylor
Justin Fields was benched at halftime during Sunday's Week 7 contest against the Carolina Panthers. At the time of his benching, he had completed just six of 12 pass attempts for 46 yards, zero touchdowns, and zero turnovers. He also rushed for 22 yards and took three sacks. He was replaced by Tyrod Taylor, who led the Jets' offense on the opening drive of the second half. Fields' benching runs counter to comments made by head coach Aaron Glenn last week, when he criticized a reporter for asking about a potential quarterback change. Just seven days later, Glenn appears to have a new perspective on the situation. Taylor will be tasked with leading the 0-6 Jets back from a 10-3 deficit coming out of the locker room.
