On the verge of moving to 0-7, the New York Jets are trying something new. With the Jets down 13-3 against the Carolina Panthers at halftime, quarterback Justin Fields has been benched and replaced by Tyrod Taylor.
Taylor, a career backup who is in his second year with the Jets, did not successfully capitalize on his first big opportunity, as New York was forced to punt after six plays.
