Justin Fields had a disastrous outing before exiting with concussion against Bills
Justin Fields had one of the best games of his career in the season opener against the Pittsburgh Steelers, but the Week 2 clash saw a significant dip in his performance.
Fields had just 3-of-11 passes for 27 yards with 49 rushing yards in one of the worst games of his career. His game was cut short early in the fourth quarter after he was hit by defensive end Joey Bosa.
It wasn't just Fields who regressed against the Bills as the offensive line had an underwhelming game. Jets coach Aaron Glenn was not pleased with the performance:
"It's not OK, it's not OK to lose like that. I'm not a big fan of sitting here and telling everybody, 'Guys, it's OK.' No, no, you don't just lose like that and it's OK."The Jets will need to lift their game in the Week 3 matchup against the Buccaneers to avoid going 0-3 to start the season.
