Fernando Mendoza addresses NY Jets talk at Heisman Trophy festivities

Fernando Mendoza recalls his first visit to NYC and answers a question about the New York Jets as he focuses on winning a national title.

The New York Jets (3-11) face the New Orleans Saints (4-10) in Week 16 of the NFL regular season.

The Jets are aiming to bounce back after a 48-20 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 15.

The Saints are looking for their first three-game winning streak this season following a 20-17 victory as time expired over the Carolina Panthers last Sunday afternoon.

Jets vs. Saints Week 16 prediction

Saints 24, Jets 17: Similar to their MetLife counterparts, the Jets defense has had a tough time stopping anybody recently, with the most recent being a 48-20 thrashing at the hands of the Jaguars in Week 15.

It’ll be another week of QB Brady Cook under center for the Jets, head coach Aaron Glenn announced on Wednesday afternoon that the undrafted rookie signal caller will make his second career start and either Tyrod Taylor or Justin Fields will back him up.

The Saints offense isn’t nearly as prolific as Jacksonville’s, but it won’t matter here as New Orleans still comes out on top, sending the Jets to 3-12 and even closer to having one of the top picks in the 2026 NFL Draft next April.
