Jets lean into a run-first attack in 2025, leaning on Breece Hall as the hammer in a varied backfield while Justin Fields’ mobility keeps defenses honest. The o-line must win at the point of attack, with new blockers and a tighter run-game plan featuring tight ends Woods and Becker. The WR room remains a concern, making veteran presence like Amari Cooper and Garrett Wilson’s upside key to balance. Center competition between Titman and Myers could ripple into Week 1’s approach against Pittsburgh, while a middle-game roster tweak remains uncertain.

Notes on personnel sketch a clear path: Hall as the workhorse, Fields as a dangerous evaluator of lanes, and Quinnen Williams anchoring a reforming defense. Jelani Woods adds blocking and receiving depth, while Derrick Nnadi’s addition strengthens interior disruption. If the Jets land Cooper, the WR corps could stabilize quickly, easing Fields’ processing and expanding Wilson’s downfield chances in a run-first but balanced offense.

Kansas City kept eight wide receivers on the initial 53, signaling a pass‑heavy plan that prioritizes versatility and upside at the position. Rashee Rice, JuJu Smith‑Schuster, Skyy Moore, Xavier Worthy, and Kadarius Toney anchor a deep group, with Elijah Mitchell and dynamic veterans like Robert Tonyan and Mike Edwards in supporting roles. The Chiefs also discussed bringing back certain veterans and using waiver and trade avenues to refine the roster before Week 1.
