While there’s some buzz around the New York Jets as the 2025 NFL season approaches, thanks mostly to the potentially electric pairing of new head coach Aaron Glenn and quarterback Justin Fields, expectations for Gang Green generally remain with reason. A bounce back year from a few key players could lift the Jets to around .500, though they’re still not likely to contend with the Buffalo Bills for the division.
But even as modest as most fan expectations are, some analysts are even lower. Bill Barnwell of ESPN recently ranked each team’s collection of receivers, tight ends, and running backs, and he placed the Jets at 27th overall, just three spots ahead of division rival New England Patriots.
