New York Jets News: Jets sign Bailey Zappe to future contract

Your daily links to the New York Jets

Good morning Gang Green Nation! The New York Jets signed three players to futures contracts yesterday. The most prominent name was quarterback Bailey Zappe. Zappe was a fourth-round pick in the 2022 NFL draft. He had some success with the New England Patriots in his rookie season for a couple of games. Unfortunately, his play has deteriorated from there. In total over his first three NFL seasons Zappe has more interceptions than touchdowns. He has never had a season QBR above 37. Zappe will be 27 years old in the 2026 NFL season. His upside from here is likely limited. This is not a quarterback who will likely challenge for a starting job. More likely Zappe will duke it out with Brady Cook for the third quarterback spot on the Jets. Both may end up on the practice squad or looking for a new team by September.
