The New York Jets have a ton of areas of weakness heading into the 2024 offseason, but one of their more under-appreciated needs coming up is a backup quarterback. The lack of a competent reserve signal-caller in 2023 doomed the Jets to their 13th straight year without a playoff appearance. With 40-year-old Aaron Rodgers returning from an Achilles injury and a third straight year of nothing from Zach Wilson, the Jets need to prioritize a designated survivor if Rodgers does go down again. Jets owner Woody Johnson said as much during the NFL Honors.
“[We] need a backup quarterback,” Johnson said, per ESPN. “We didn’t have one last year.”
Before the offseason officially kicks off, here are some of the best free-agent backups New York could go after.
