New York Jets quarterback Justin Fields has his detractors, but one of the franchise's newly drafted weapons is in his corner.

The New York Jets needed a weapon for Justin Fields in the early rounds of the draft, and after tackle Armand Membou was taken in round one, LSU tight end Mason Taylor heard his name called at the beginning of the second round.

The New York Jets strengthened their quarterback depth chart in the immediate aftermath of the 2025 NFL Draft. One of their priority undrafted free agent signings was a QB from the SEC. Brady Cook of Missouri is officially a Jet.
