Making another start
Cook will start Sunday's game at New Orleans, Al Iannazzone of Newsday reports.
Analysis: Jets coach Aaron Glenn made the announcement Wednesday afternoon, telling reporters that his Week 16 backup will be whichever of Tyrod Taylor (groin) or Justin Fields (knee) is healthy enough to play. Glenn's decision coming this early in the week could be taken as a hint that he wants Cook to finish out the season, though things can change in a hurry if the rookie continues to struggle (he tossed three interceptions Sunday in a 48-20 loss at Jacksonville).

One TD, three INTs in first start
Cook completed 22 of 33 passes for 176 yards, one touchdown and three interceptions in Sunday's 48-20 loss to the Jaguars. He also rushed six times for 39 yards.
Analysis: Cook completed his first six passes, the last of which was a nine-yard touchdown pass to Adonai Mitchell for Cook's first NFL touchdown pass. The undrafted rookie quarterback struggled after that point, tossing three interceptions as the Jets fell to 3-11 with a lopsided loss in Cook's first NFL start. Having already been eliminated from playoff contention, the Jets may just ride Cook the rest of the way. He'll be in the mix to start in Week 16 against the Saints, but the return of Tyrod Taylor…read more

Named Week 15 starter
Coach Aaron Glenn confirmed Friday that Cook will start Sunday's game against the Jaguars.
Analysis: With both Tyrod Taylor (groin) and Justin Fields (knee) dealing with injuries and out this week, per Eric Allen of the Jets' official site, Cook, who joined the team as an undrafted free agent after the 2025 Draft, is slated to make his first career NFL regular season start this weekend, while Adrian Martinez is in line to be elevated from the practice squad to serve as his backup, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports. In that context, the Missouri product represents an option for those in…read more

Trending toward Week 15 start
Cook is likely to start Sunday's game against the Jaguars, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports, as Tyrod Taylor (groin) and Justin Fields (knee) both remained sidelined at Thursday's practice.
Analysis: Cook has handled first-team reps in practice while preparing to make his first NFL start Sunday at Jacksonville. Taylor and Fields both appear likely to sit out Sunday's game. The Jets signed Adrian Martinez, whom Cook beat out for a spot with the team after the preseason, to their practice squad Wednesday. Cook saw his first regular-season NFL action in relief of Taylor in the Jets' Week 14 loss to the Dolphins.

Gets all first-team reps Wednesday
Cook will get all the first-team reps at Wednesday's practice, while neither Tyrod Taylor (groin) or Justin Fields (knee) will practice in any capacity, Eric Allen of the Jets' official site reports.
Analysis: Cook is the only healthy quarterback on the roster for the Jets as they begin preparing for Sunday's game against the Jaguars, though New York added Adrian Martinez to the mix Wednesday by signing Martinez to the practice squad. If Taylor and Fields are both unavailable Sunday, Cook would be in line to make his first NFL start. Cook saw his first regular-season NFL action in this past Sunday's 34-10 loss to the Dolphins after Taylor exited in the first half. The undrafted rookie out of Missouri…read more

Struggles in relief
Cook completed 14 of 30 passes for 163 yards, with no touchdowns and two interceptions after replacing the injured Tyrod Taylor (groin) in the first half of Sunday's 34-10 loss to the Dolphins. Cook also rushed once for no gain.
Analysis: Cook dressed as the backup in the absence of Justin Fields (knee), and the undrafted rookie out of Missouri was pressed into action after Taylor got hurt. The Jets' only touchdown came on a punt return as Cook led one field-goal drive and turned it over twice. Cook would likely make his first NFL start in Week 15 at Jacksonville if neither Taylor nor Fields gets clearance to play.

Signs with New York
The Jets signed Cook to the active roster Saturday, Susanna Weir and Eric Allen of the team's official site report.
Analysis: With Justin Fields (knee) ruled out, Cook will be the backup to Tyrod Taylor for Sunday's divisional contest with the Dolphins. The quarterback was elevated twice this season, once in Week 3 to be the backup to Taylor and once in Week 8 to be the backup to Fields.

Back with practice squad
Cook reverted to the Jets' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
Analysis: Cook was elevated to operate as the team's backup behind Justin Fields in Sunday's 39-38 win over the Bengals. The quarterback didn't enter the game, but he could be asked to join the active roster again in Week 10 if Tyrod Taylor (knee) remains sidelined after New York's Week 9 bye.

Elevated for Week 8
The Jets elevated Cook from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.
Analysis: Cook will serve as the Jets' backup quarterback behind Justin Fields against the Bengals on Sunday in the absence of Tyrod Taylor (knee). Cook was elevated for Week 3 against the Buccaneers, though he did not enter that contest while operating as Taylor's backup.

Returns to practice squad
Cook reverted to the Jets' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
Analysis: Cook was elevated to operate as New York's backup quarterback behind Tyrod Taylor in Week 3, failing to enter the contest in Sunday's 29-27 loss to the Buccaneers. With Justin Fields (concussion) still uncertain for Week 4, Cook could be elevated again to operate as the team's backup behind Taylor on Monday Night Football in Miami.

Set to back up Taylor
The Jets elevated Cook from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Eric Allen of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Cook has been with the Jets since signing with the team as an undrafted free agent. He's been on the practice squad to begin the season, but will get a chance to back up Tyrod Taylor in Week 3 against the Buccaneers, as Justin Fields (concussion) is sidelined.

Remains on practice squad
Cook signed with the Jets' practice squad Wednesday.
Analysis: Cook joined the Jets as an undrafted free agent in April after throwing for 2,535 yards, 11 touchdowns and two interceptions in addition to rushing 87 times for 223 yards and five touchdowns during his final season at Missouri. The 23-year-old quarterback completed 25 of 38 passes for 235 yards (6.2 YPA), a touchdown and an interception during the preseason. The Jets are sticking with just two quarterbacks -- Justin Fields and Tyrod Taylor (knee) -- to begin the year.

Cut loose by New York
Cook was waived by the Jets on Tuesday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Cook played in all three of the team's preseason games, completing 25 of 38 passes for 235 yards and a touchdown, while he also threw an interception. The quarterback signed with the Jets as an undrafted free agent in April, and if he goes unclaimed on waivers, there's a good chance he sticks around New York as a member of the practice squad.

Tosses TD in preseason loss
Cook completed six of 11 passes for 74 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's 31-12 preseason loss to the Giants.
Analysis: Cook didn't get into the game until the final 20 minutes, but it was still a memorable night for the rookie out of Missouri, whose four-yard touchdown pass to Quentin Skinner in the fourth quarter was Cook's first touchdown pass in the NFL. Tyrod Taylor (knee) has been ruled out for the remainder of the preseason, so either Cook or Adrian Martinez could begin the regular season as Justin Fields' backup if Taylor isn't ready to return by then. The competition between Cook and Martinez could come…read more

Second QB into Saturday's game
Cook completed six of eight passes for 62 yards and rushed once for minus-five yards in Saturday's 30-10 preseason win over the Packers.
Analysis: With Tyrod Taylor (knee) sitting out, Cook was the second quarterback into the game for the Jets after starter Justin Fields played the opening drive. Cook played the remainder of the first half before being replaced by Adrian Martinez, who threw for 152 yards and a touchdown in the second half. The competition for the third spot on the quarterback depth chart between Cook -- who signed with the Jets as an undrafted free agent out of Missouri in April -- and the 2024 UFL MVP Martinez will…read more
