Aaron Glenn Assigns Blame After Jets Loss to Patriots
New York lost two takeaways, three red-zone trips and a wiped-out touchdown as penalties and stalled drives again hurt a 2-4 start.
On Sunday, October 18, 2026, the New York Jets fell 26-19 to the New England Patriots at Gillette Stadium, dropping their record to 2-4 on the season.
Offensive struggles plagued the Jets, who failed to score on three red-zone possessions; an offensive pass interference penalty against Tim Patrick erased quarterback Geno Smith's touchdown pass to Omar Cooper Jr.
Rookie receiver Cooper caught six passes for 103 yards in his return from injury, while running back Braelon Allen rushed for 78 yards on 17 carries to support the offense.
Head coach Aaron Glenn criticized his defense for failing to sack Patriots quarterback Drake Maye, stating, "I felt like we had the quarterback in our grasp a couple of times."
The Jets seek a division win on Sunday when the winless Miami Dolphins visit MetLife Stadium, hoping to rebound after falling to 2-4 on the season.
