The Jets have reached the final week of training camp and only one preseason contest remains before the 2026 regular season starts. Practices shifted into the afternoon for the Green & White and head coach Aaron Glenn has continued to test the team.<\/p>\n
“I think AG does a really good job of challenging us and working us when we’re working,” S Minkah Fitzpatrick<\/a> said. “The way our schedule is set up is not to burn us out, it’s to make sure we maximize our work time.”<\/p>\n Monday was the “hardest practice” for Glenn as a head coach because of all the different situation the Jets went through. Practice concluded with a two-minute end of half situation, which started on the offense’s 30-yard line. QB Geno Smith<\/a> led the first-team unit connecting with WR Garrett Wilson<\/a> and TE Mason Taylor<\/a> twice.<\/p>\n “I thought Geno [Smith] did a hell of a job of getting his guys in the end zone,” Glenn said. “Excited about that, excited about the direction, we still have a lot of work to do.”<\/p>\n Olu Fashanu<\/a> was called for a false start on the fifth play of the drive, which backed up the offense to the 18-yard line. But on the next play, Smith threaded a pass up the middle right to rookie WR Omar Cooper Jr.<\/a> for the touchdown.<\/p>\n “I’m not surprised that he made that play at the end. I’m not surprised at the plays that he made in the game, and I know they’re limited, but he’s made some plays,” Glenn said of Cooper. “Man, every day he’s just improving. His personality and type of player he is, I mean that’s just going to happen anyways because he’s not going to be the guy that sits back and not do the things to help himself get better.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Jets have reached the final week of training camp and only one preseason contest remains before the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":982624,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2051],"tags":[123190,1883,7,226,929,1917,255,88,2321,2097,6,8896,48287],"class_list":["post-982623","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-new-york-jets","tag-2026-training-camp","tag-eric-allen","tag-football","tag-jets","tag-latest-headlines","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-jets","tag-news","tag-newyork","tag-newyorkjets","tag-nfl","tag-training-camp","tag-training-camp-practice-report"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/117155062310407851","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/982623","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=982623"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/982623\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/982624"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=982623"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=982623"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=982623"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
