The New York Jets are gearing up for an exciting season opener against the Pittsburgh Steelers on September 7 at 1 p.m. This game marks the first for new head coach Aaron Glenn, who will be facing a familiar face on the opposing sideline. The biggest question hanging over this matchup is who will start as quarterback for the Steelers.
There has been ongoing speculation about former Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers potentially signing with the Steelers, but as of now, that deal has not been finalized. If he does join Pittsburgh, it would certainly add an interesting twist to the game.
On the Jets’ side, they will have a new quarterback of their own. Justin Fields, who played for the Steelers last season before being benched, is expected to lead the Jets this year. This game could see both quarterbacks facing off against their former teams, making it a unique storyline for fans.
Following the season opener, the Jets will host the Buffalo Bills in Week 2. They will then hit the road for two games in Florida, first against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and then against the Miami Dolphins in a Monday Night Football matchup.
The Jets have two prime-time games scheduled for this season, a change from last year when they had six games under the spotlight. Additionally, the NFL announced that the Jets will play the Denver Broncos in London during Week 6, adding an international flair to their schedule.
As the Jets prepare for the upcoming season, fans are eager to see how these storylines unfold, especially with the potential for drama surrounding the quarterbacks.
