- Justin Fields, expected to be the starting quarterback, sustained a leg injury during Jets training camp on Thursday.

Justin Fields, a former Chicago Bear now playing for the New York Jets, experienced a leg injury at training camp on Thursday morning. Prior to this incident, the Jets (5-12 in 2024) were already predicted to have one of the lowest win totals in the NFL at 5.5 games. Fields being taken off the field further diminished their NFL prospects.
