The New York Jets are searching for a new start and quarterback ahead of the 2026 season. Jets insider Zach Rosenblatt named Jacobi Preset and Geno Smith as the leading candidates to take the role. Preset has long appealed to the Jets, who tried signing him as a backup in past off seasons. At 33 years old, he fits as a reliable bridge option after a breakout performance last year. He stepped up for the Arizona Cardinals, posting career bets across 14 games with 12 starts. That included a 64.9 completion percentage, 3366 passing yards, 23 touchdowns, and A. 94.1 pass rating. Brissa's career spans multiple teams, starting with the Patriots, where he made early starts before moves to Indianapolis, Miami, Cleveland, and Washington. He returned to New England in 2024 for five starts.
