Most NFL players have short careers. They only have a few seasons to prove they can be difference makers at their positions, or their teams and then the rest of the league moves on fast.

It’s a stressful world, and each season just about every player needs to prove his worth all over again. But to some players, there is extra pressure to perform this season to establish themselves as impact players or earn a big new contract.

Justin Fields got another chance to start from the Jets, who were a bit desperate after moving on from Aaron Rodgers. Fields got a two-year, $40 million deal, which would either be easy for the Jets to move on from after one season or for Fields to seek a long-term extension if he plays well. 

The Jets still have plenty of talent and there’s no real competition for Fields on the roster. He should get the season to prove what he can do. However, a poor preseason passing the ball didn’t inspire much confidence heading into the season. This might be Fields’ last good chance to establish himself as a regular starter in the NFL.

New York Jets starting quarterback Justin Fields returned to the starting lineup on Monday after missing Week 3 with a concussion.

The Miami Dolphins ruined Fields’ return, beating the Jets 27-21 on Monday Night Football in Week 4. The dual-threat quarterback had some ups and downs.

Fields started poorly, losing a fumble on the Jets’ second possession. It was a brutal follow-up to a Braelon Allen fumble at the goal line on the first drive. 

Fields’ most electric play was of the highlight-worthy variety. With the Jets trailing 17-3 midway through the third quarter, Aaron Glenn encouraged the offense to convert a 4th-and-1. Fields’ play-action attempt appeared dead in the backfield. That’s when he scrambled around, found the edge and rumbled for a 43-yard rushing touchdown.

All in all, Fields completed 20-of-27 passing attempts for 226 yards and a touchdown. The stats are somewhat misleading. Most of Fields’ passing production occurred in the fourth quarter with the Jets trailing by multiple scores, with the Dolphins playing a conservative prevent defense.

The Jaxson Dart era in New York got off to a winning start, as the Giants upset the previously unbeaten Los Angeles Chargers 21-18 on Sunday at MetLife Stadium.

Dart was efficient, but somewhat limited by a left hamstring injury he suffered in the first half. Dart got his NFL starting QB career off to a good start with a 15-yard touchdown run on his first drive. The Giants went up-tempo in the Ole Miss product’s first game.  

Dart was efficient in the first half in leading the Giants to a 13-10 halftime lead (7 of 11 for 59 yards; six carries for 44 yards and a TD), but the rookie began grabbing his left hamstring to stretch it out late in the first half and was noticeably limping on the last drive before halftime as the Chargers have turned up the pressure.

Rookie Cam Skattebo ran for 79 yards on 25 carries as the Giants rushed for 161 yards on the afternoon.

For Los Angeles, Justin Herbert threw two crucial interceptions that put the Giants in good field position. He finished 23 of 41 for 203 yards passing. Dart only threw for 111, but added 54 yards on the ground with a passing and rushing touchdown. Rookie running back Omarion Hampton was a beast and rushed for 128 yards, including a 54-yard touchdown, on just 12 carries.

After a lengthy standoff, the New York Mets re-signed Pete Alonso to a two-year, $54 million contract over the offseason. While the deal kept the slugger in Queens for 2025, it also includes an opt out for the second year. And, barring an unforeseen disaster, Alonso will almost certainly re-enter free agency at the end of the season.

The Mets could work out a new contract with the five-time All-Star. But Alonso will have other suitors interested in a power-hitting corner infielder. It’s unclear if either side will prioritize the other in free agency. And Alonso reflected that uncertainty when discussing his future with the team.

“We’ll see what happens. I love it, it’s great. But you can’t really predict anything,” Alonso said, per New York Post Sports. “It’d be great to stay… whatever happens happens.”

The Kansas City Chiefs defeated the New York Giants on Sunday Night Football, 22-9.  

Though both teams entered the contest in search of their first win, New York’s up-and-comers were no match for Kansas City’s veteran leadership during the primetime matchup.

Star quarterback Patrick Mahomes completed 22 of his 37 pass attempts for 224 yards and a touchdown against the Giants’ secondary.

The Giants’ fanbase was clearly frustrated during their home opener, as Russell Wilson threw two interceptions and was held to just 160 passing yards. 

Standout linebacker Nick Bolton was among Kansas City’s top defensive performers, with 14 combined tackles in the game.

The New York Jets had a classic Jets outing against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Tampa (3-0) took a 29-27 win over New York in a close contest. It did not feel that close but somehow the Jets stuck around and even took the lead late.

Then it happened. The Jets defense could not hold the Bucs offense and they kicked the game-winning field goal as time expired.

In the end, it was another ending that has been seen all too often in New York.

The loss brings the Jets’ record to 0-3 to start the 2025 season. Now the Jets move on to preparing for a road game against the Miami Dolphins on Monday Night Football next week.

Nolan McLean was making his third career start for the New York Mets on Wednesday night against the Philadelphia Phillies. In the series’ first two games, the Mets’ starting pitchers did not get past the sixth inning.

In just his third start, McLean absolutely dominated in a 6-0 win for New York over Philadelphia. In the game, he pitched eight innings and gave up four hits. McLean walked no batters and struck out six. He also didn’t approach 100 pitches on the night, which was even more impressive considering the fact that the starting pitching has struggled for most of the season.

Nolan McLean could be the New York Mets’ potential ace moving forward

Mets fans will not dispute that David Peterson has been the best starting pitcher on the team before McLean. Since McLean arrived, the rotation has been different and better. 

During the Phillies matchup, McLean had the Phillies hitters looking confused. He has faced quality lineups in all three games he has appeared in. This could go a long way for the Mets.

The Buffalo Bills were up 30-3 before the New York Jets even had an ounce of legitimate offense. Even before their starting quarterback was knocked from the game with a concussion, the Jets offense was held to historically low numbers.

The Jets didn’t convert any of their third downs, marking the second time the Bills defense has done that since 1990. (The Bills also did it to the Jets in 2023.)

The Bills’ passing defense was the big winner on the day. New York had only two completions in the first half. Justin Fields left the game early, but finished the day 3-of-11 for just 27 yards with two sacks. Tyrod Taylor fared a bit better in desperation mode, going 7-of-11 for 56 yards and New York’s lone touchdown (against the backups).

Joey Bosa forced two fumbles during the game, too.

The New York Giants and Dallas Cowboys played one of the more exciting games in recent Giants’ history on Sunday. However, the ending was crushing for New York. Cowboys 40, Giants 37. 

The overtime game saw 41 points scored in the fourth quarter, as Dak Prescott and Russell Wilson played well. A 64-yard Brandon Aubrey field goal sent this game to overtime after Wilson connected on a 48-yard touchdown bomb to Malik Nabers, which was after a short George Pickens touchdown that happened just after the two-minute warning.

Both teams were heavily penalized. The Giants committed 14 penalties for 160 yards, and Dallas committed 12 for 106 yards. New York went over 500 total offensive yards for the first time since 2011 – another game against the Dallas Cowboys. The Giants were the winners of that affair, but they failed to seize victory despite a valiant effort.

This was a completely different Wilson than we saw in Week 1 against Washington. Wilson finished the first half 17 of 20 for 235 yards with one touchdown. Wilson finished the game with 450 yards passing and 3 touchdowns.
