The New York Jets are set to enter yet another pivotal offseason for the organization in 2026. Head coach Aaron Glenn and general manager Darren Mougey know that they need to win games this season to save their jobs, which is why many expect the team to be very active in free agency.
Glenn and Mougey took a very passive approach to the open market a year ago, signing just two players — Justin Fields and Brandon Stephens — to multi-year contracts. Expect things to be different this time around.
The Jets are already projected to have nearly $75 million in cap space following the NFL’s salary cap announcement on Friday, according to Over the Cap, and that figure could climb even higher with a few roster cuts.
