Jets vs Giants team news
New York Jets team news
Aaron Rodgers is set to be the starting quarterback this season, but the Jets have decided to keep him off the field during preseason games to avoid any risk, especially after his previous season was cut short due to an Achilles injury after just four plays. Tyrod Taylor serves as the backup, though he's also unlikely to play in this game. As a result, most of the snaps will go to UFL MVP Adrian Martinez and rookie Andrew Peasley.
Breece Hall remains the top running back, but like Rodgers, he hasn’t participated in preseason games. Several running backs, including Braelon Allen, Israel Abanikanda, Isaiah Davis, Deon Jackson, and Xazavian Valladay, are competing to secure a spot behind Hall on the depth chart. At the wide receiver position, Garrett Wilson, Xavier Gipson, Allen Lazard, and Mike Williams are expected to be key players, while Malachi Corley, Brandon Smith, Lance McCutcheon, Tyler Harrell, and Jason Brownlee are battling for their place in the lineup.
New York Giants team news
Daniel Jones is set to start at quarterback for the Giants. In his recent game against the Texans, he completed 11 of 18 passes for 131 yards, threw two interceptions, and added 12 rushing yards. This game marked his return after recovering from ACL surgery last November. With Drew Lock sidelined due to a hip injury sustained against the Lions, Tommy DeVito steps into the backup quarterback role. Head coach Brian Daboll has stated that the team won’' be bringing in another quarterback, so tight end Tyrie Jackson will serve as the emergency third QB.
Devin Singletary is expected to be the primary running back, though his playing time is uncertain. Tyrone Tracy Jr. returned to practice on Tuesday after recovering from an ankle injury that kept him out of the Texans game, while Dante Miller has been limited in practice due to a hamstring issue. This opens the door for Eric Gray to make a significant impact.
In the receiving corps, Malik Nabers and Darius Slayton have solidified their starting spots. Jalin Hyatt, Isaiah McKenzie, Isaiah Hodgins, Allen Robinson II, Miles Boykin, Bryce Ford-Wheaton, and Ayir Asante will compete for positions on the depth chart behind Slayton, Nabers, and Wan'Dale Robinson.
