The Athletic's Dianna Russini reports that the New York Jets are making a change at quarterback and will bench Justin Fields in favor of veteran Tyrod Taylor, according to a source. The Jets will face the Baltimore Ravens in Week 12 and rank last in the league in passing yards per game with 139.9. Fields had a decent day for fantasy managers who started him in last Thursday night's loss to the New England Patriots, but he threw for just 116 yards and a touchdown on 26 pass attempts. Fields has finished under 100 passing yards in four of his nine games in his first year in New York, and the Jets are going to go in another direction as they look for a spark. The 36-year-old Taylor isn't going to be a savior for the Jets, but he could be a steadying presence for the offense. In three games this year, he's gone 43-for-69 for 379 yards with three touchdowns and three picks. At best, Taylor is going to be a low-end desperation streamer for fantasy managers in superflex two-QB leagues going forward.

New York Jets QB Tyrod Taylor was named the starting quarterback for Week 12 against the Baltimore Ravens over QB Justin Fields.

Fantasy Spin: Taylor is only an option in superflex leagues you can use an extra quarterback.

Leading up to their Thursday night road matchup with the New England Patriots, New York Jets head coach Aaron Glenn has refused to name a starting quarterback, again leaving doubt about whether it will be Justin Fields or Tyrod Taylor leading the offense. Although Glenn has stuck with Fields for the Jets' previous two games, the Ohio State alum put together another dismal performance in last weekend's 27-20 victory over the Cleveland Browns. In truth, it will be difficult to trust either in Week 11 outside of superflex/2QB formats, given New York will be without its top receiving threat, Garrett Wilson (knee). Even then, New England's defense has been stifling in 2025, affording the eighth-fewest total yards per contest (306.2) to opposing offenses. Fantasy managers can steer clear of this QB room until the offense gets back on track.

New York Jets quarterback Tyrod Taylor would be a low-end streaming option in Week 10 if he gets the starting nod for the team's home bout with the Cleveland Browns. Even after a bye week, head coach Aaron Glenn has still not seen fit to name a starting quarterback. The 36-year-old looked like he might get a shot to run away with the starting gig back in Week 8, although he was eventually ruled out with a knee injury. Taylor looks to be over his ailment, carrying no designation into Sunday's contest. The sentiment around the team, however, seems to be that Justin Fields will again lead the Jets' offense. Whichever of the two winds up calling signals for New York will be met with a challenging outing against a Browns unit that's been unkind to opposing offenses. Through eight games, Cleveland is third in total defense (276.9) and has forced the fifth-most interceptions (eight) while yielding a dreary 12.13 rushing yards per game to QBs.

New York Jets QB Tyrod Taylor (knee) fully participated in practice Friday, Nov. 7, and is not on the injury report for Week 10.

Fantasy Spin: Fantasy players can monitor the Jets quarterback situation, but Taylor will most likely be the backup quarterback in Week 10. He could take over the starting role at some point but can be avoided in fantasy leagues.

New York Jets OG Xavier Newman (ankle) did not participate in practice Friday, Nov. 7, and is listed as questionable for Week 10. RB Khalil Herbert (groin) was limited during practice and is listed as questionable. LB Francisco Mauigoa (concussion) and WR Garrett Wilson (knee) fully participated in practice but are listed as questionable. RB Kene Nwangwu (concussion), TE Stone Smartt (quadriceps), TE Mason Taylor (quadriceps), QB Tyrod Taylor (knee) and DT Jay Tufele (knee) fully participated in practice and are not on the injury report.

New York Jets QB Tyrod Taylor (knee) fully participated in practice Thursday, Nov. 6.

Fantasy Spin: The Jets have not named a starter for this week, so Taylor still has a chance to have some value in fantasy leagues this week. Fantasy players should still avoid Taylor since Justin Fields is more likely to receive the start in Week 10.

New York Jets quarterback Tyrod Taylor (knee) was able to practice in full on Wednesday. Taylor took over for Justin Fields during their loss to the Carolina Panthers in Week 7. Sadly, Taylor suffered a knee injury during that game, which kept him sidelined in Week 8. Luckily, Taylor has been able to rest and recover over the last few weeks. It appears the 36-year-old will be ready to go if called upon to start against the Cleveland Browns this weekend. Head coach Aaron Glenn hasn't announced a starter yet, so fantasy managers will have to stay tuned for that.

New York Jets QB Tyrod Taylor (knee) fully participated in practice Wednesday, Nov. 5.

Fantasy Spin: Taylor appeared to have a chance to take over as the starter before the injury, but Justin Fields played well in Week 8 and should keep the job for now. There is a chance Taylor starts at some point this season but can be avoided in fantasy leagues at this point.

New York Jets QB Tyrod Taylor (knee) is expected to participate in practice this week, according to head coach Aaron Glenn.

Fantasy Spin: Taylor was a candidate to start before the injury, but Justin Fields will likely keep the starting job after a successful Week 8 performance. There is a chance that Taylor starts at some point but can be avoided in fantasy leagues at this time.

New York Jets head coach Aaron Glenn told reporters on Monday that veteran quarterback Tyrod Taylor (knee) "will be practicing this week," according to Eric Allen of NewYorkJets.com. Glenn remains mum on who will be the team's starting QB coming out of their bye to face the Cleveland Browns this Sunday in Week 10. The Jets were leaning toward starting Taylor in Week 8 against the Cincinnati Bengals before he came down with a knee injury, forcing Fields into another start. Fields led the Jets to their first win of 2025, going 21-for-32 passing for 244 yards, one touchdown, and no interceptions while adding 31 rushing yards on 11 carries. It seemed as though Fields did enough to get another shot as the starter following the team's Week 9 bye, but apparently, New York isn't sold. If Taylor makes his first start of the year this Sunday, he'd be an unattractive, low-end QB2, at best, against a Browns defense that is the strength of their team.

Oct 25 12:00pm CT

New York Jets quarterback Tyrod Taylor (knee) has been ruled out for his team's Week 8 matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals due to a knee injury, per Brian Costello of the New York Post. There had been speculation that Taylor would take over for the struggling Justin Fields under center for the 0-7 Jets, but that will not be the case in Week 8. Costello writes that Fields will be the team's starting quarterback against Cincinnati, with rookie Brady Cook serving as the backup. Fields has completed 63.7% of his pass attempts for 845 yards, four touchdowns, and zero interceptions across six games so far this season. He's also rushed 42 times for 257 yards and three scores, which allows him to maintain fantasy appeal. The Bengals have allowed opponents to score over 30 points per game on average this season, so there's an opportunity for Fields to produce in Week 8.

New York Jets quarterback Tyrod Taylor (knee) will be difficult to bet on if he plays in Week 8 when his team takes on the hosting Cincinnati Bengals. The Jets are lined up for a juicy matchup against one of the league's worst defensive units. However, it's unclear who will be New York's starting quarterback. Justin Fields has all but played himself out of a job, but Taylor, who is questionable, is dealing with a knee issue that's kept him to a limited status at practice this week. If the 36-year-old does end up leading the offense, fantasy managers can take a chance on him as a streamer in superflex/2QB formats, particularly against a vulnerable Bengals defense. Cincinnati is allowing the third-most passing yards (257.1) and eighth-most fantasy points per game to QBs. Taylor ranks as RotoBaller's QB22 ahead of Sunday's outing.

New York Jets CB Sauce Gardner (concussion), CB Cam Jones (hip), RB Kene Nwangwu (concussion), TE Stone Smartt (quad), DL Jay Tufele (knee), and WR Garrett Wilson (knee) did not practice all week and have been ruled out for Week 8 against the Cincinnati Bengals. WR Josh Reynolds (hip) did not practice on Friday, Oct. 24, and is listed as questionable. TE Mason Taylor (quad) and QB Tyrod Taylor (knee) were limited in practice on Friday and are listed as questionable. RB Breece Hall (knee) practiced in full on Friday and is listed as questionable. CB Michael Carter II (concussion), DL Jermaine Johnson (ankle), and CB Qwan'tez Stiggers (hip) practiced in full on Friday and no longer appear on the injury report.

New York Jets quarterback Tyrod Taylor (knee) is listed as questionable to play in Sunday's Week 8 contest against the Cincinnati Bengals, according to NewYorkJets.com's Eric Allen. However, head coach Aaron Glenn said that the veteran QB is trending in the right direction to be available this weekend. Taylor has been limited in practice this week due to a knee injury that isn't believed to be serious. It's unclear if the 36-year-old's injury will keep him from making the start under center against Cincy over Justin Fields, who was benched at halftime in last Sunday's loss to the Carolina Panthers. The 0-7 Jets' offense is a mess. Not only is Taylor banged up, but they will be without top receiver Garrett Wilson (knee) for a second straight game, while running back Breece Hall (knee) and rookie tight end Mason Taylor (quadriceps) are questionable. If Taylor is active and makes his first start of the year, fantasy managers in superflex leagues would be better off looking elsewhere.
