The final chapter of the New York Jets 2026 NFL preseason is here on Friday as the team has their annual crosstown matchup against the Giants at 7:30 p.m. at MetLife Stadium.
It is expected that starters will not see playing time, but that is usually the case in the exhibition season finale. Head coach Aaron Glenn will go without quarterback Geno Smith against the Giants. It will be fourth-round rookie Cade Klubnik at QB once again with Bailey Zappe.
As always, there is still plenty to watch for during the exhibition season.
