Jets overwhelm Titans for season-opening 23-10 win

Key Points:

• The Jets defeated the Titans 23-10, marking their first winning record since starting 2-1 with former coach Robert Saleh in 2024, who was fired after two losses and is now head coach of the Titans.
• Jets' defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn's approach successfully pressured Titans quarterback Cam Ward, limiting the Titans to just 195 total yards and holding most of their offense to the final minutes.
• Jets' offensive coordinator Frank Reich also had a strong debut, with the Jets dominating time of possession and total yards; Geno Smith threw for 215 yards and Breece Hall rushed for 102 yards.
• Three Jets' first-round picks contributed significantly: tight end Kenyon Sadiq scored the opening touchdown, linebacker David Bailey recorded a sack, and wide receiver Omar Cooper made key plays before leaving with an ankle injury.
• Injuries to safety Minkah Fitzpatrick and wide receiver Omar Cooper raise health concerns for the Jets ahead of their Week 2 home game against the Packers, while the Titans face boos from their home crowd as they prepare to host the Eagles.
