Jets Bench Fields in 13-6 Loss

The New York Jets fell 13-6 to the Carolina Panthers on Sunday and dropped to 0–7. The Panthers lost starter Bryce Young, and veteran Andy Dalton helped clinch the win. Justin Fields started and struggled, completing 6-of-12 for 46 yards, took a big hit that briefly sent him to the medical tent, and was benched in the second half. Tyrod Taylor relieved Fields and finished 10-of-22 for 126 yards with no touchdowns and two interceptions. New York’s quarterbacks were sacked six times in the game (15 over the last two games), highlighting ongoing offensive-line problems, and coach Aaron Glenn declined to name a Week 8 starter while saying he will evaluate the position, leaving Fields' status uncertain.
