“Why Tie Yourself to B Grade Option”: NFL Fans Mock Aaron Glenn as Jets Schedule Private Workout with 28 TD College QB
The Jets evaluate Simpson, a top 2026 draft QB with 64.5% pass completion, aiming to develop a young quarterback behind Geno Smith.
- On Friday, March 27, the New York Jets will host Alabama quarterback Ty Simpson for a private workout, following his Pro Day performance on Wednesday, March 25.
- As the team rebuilds its quarterback room, the Jets are conducting extensive due diligence on 2026 NFL Draft prospects, with Geno Smith turning 36 during the 2026 season.
- Simpson, a 23-year-old starter, completed 64.5% of his passes for 3,567 yards and 28 touchdowns last year at Alabama; scouts praise his accuracy and tempo while noting his limited experience.
- New York holds two first-round selections in next month's draft, including the No. 2 pick, creating a decision point on whether Simpson warrants a premium pick or other positions take priority.
- The Jets also hold four premium picks in the 2027 NFL draft, which is projected to feature a deeper quarterback class, offering future flexibility in the position search.
