Similar to the situation in Miami, the Jets are rebuilding a new roster for whoever takes over as quarterback. After benching Justin Fields, the Jets will dissect whether or not Tyrod Taylor is the answer. Unfortunately, his stock is only valuable as a backup, so the Jets are expected to draft a quarterback with their early draft selection in 2026. While they develop their potential rookie, the team should trade for Cousins to get him in the competition to see how his skills can translate in New York.
