Jets Stick With Brady Cook as Week 17 Starter

AutoDraft Pro AI

Jets head coach Aaron Glenn confirmed that Brady Cook will remain the starting quarterback for Week 17 against the Patriots. This marks Cook's third consecutive start. Despite a challenging Week 16 performance, completing 22 of 35 passes for 188 yards with an interception and a lost fumble in a 29-6 loss to the Saints, the team will continue to give the undrafted rookie opportunities. Cook has thrown only one touchdown against six interceptions in his limited NFL appearances. Tyrod Taylor served as backup in Week 16, but Justin Fields' potential return from a knee injury could alter the backup situation.
