Week 1 of the 2025 college football campaign concluded this week. Various quarterback prospects who could potentially enter the 2026 NFL draft had an opportunity to make their first statement.<\/p>\n
The New York Jets<\/a> will be watchfully monitoring the quarterback market this season.<\/a><\/p>\n Advertisement<\/p>\n The Draft Network recently released their first 2026 NFL mock draft.<\/p>\n The outlet has the Jets selecting Clemson quarterback Cade Klubnik at No. 3 overall:<\/p>\n “If the New York Jets are picking this high, it likely means they haven\u2019t found a long-term answer at quarterback with Justin Fields\u2014putting them right back in the market for a new signal-caller,” Keith Sanchez wrote<\/a>. “Cade Klubnik is an athletic quarterback who has logged significant experience over the past three seasons and should be well-prepared to handle the pressure of playing in a major media market like New York. Drafting Klubnik would give the Jets a much-needed reset and allow the organization to invest in a fresh start moving forward.”<\/p>\n Advertisement<\/p>\n Klubnik struggled in Clemson’s disappointing opening weekend loss to LSU. The Tigers signal-caller completed 19-of-38 passing attempts for 230 yards, zero touchdowns, and one interception. He was often erratic and inaccurate. If Klubnik wants to go No. 3 overall, he’ll need to show significant improvement as the season progresses forward.<\/p>\n Jets Wire<\/a> will continue to provide updates throughout the 2025 season.<\/p>\n
