Back to EpisodesJets Pursue Carson Wentz, Reich's Familiar Face
Description
The New York Jets are seeking a temporary quarterback to guide them through the 2026 season, with Carson Wentz emerging as the top contender. After a disappointing tenure with Justin Fields, the team plans to release him. Frank Reich, the new offensive coordinator, is eager to reunite with Wentz, who had a successful stint with Reich in Philadelphia from 2016 to 2017. Wentz, 33, started five games for the Vikings last season, posting a 65% completion rate, over 1,000 passing yards, and six touchdowns before a shoulder injury ended his year. The Jets, with over $75 million in cap space, could sign Wentz on a budget-friendly deal, allowing them to bolster their offense and defense as they rebuild from a challenging 2025.
