Justin Fields was jogging off the field after leading the Jets on a touchdown drive in Saturday’s preseason game and was met with a big smile and congratulatory hand slap from Aaron Glenn. The relationship between head coach and quarterback is very important, and these two have developed a strong one in a short time.

Jets (new) coach Aaron Glenn made his unofficial debut on Saturday night, and Glenn has to feel good about the tone his group set with most of the key names, including starting quarterback Justin Fields, taking the field for the first preseason game of a new era.

New York Jets quarterback Justin Fields performed well in his first go as his new team's starter. The Jets topped the Green Bay Packers in their 2025 NFL preseason opener to the tune of a 30-10 final. Fields only played one series but made it count. He was 3-for-4 passing for 42 yards. He rushed in a touchdown to cap the drive.
