At 8 PM Eastern on Thursday, May 14th, the National Football League announced its 2026 Regular Season Schedule for all 32 teams, as the regular season will begin with the Seattle Seahawks hosting the New England Patriots on Thursday, September 10th. For the New York Jets, they have their 17-game, 18-date schedule every Sunday as they will remain at the 1 Pm time slot, except for two road games on the West Coast. There are multiple storylines for the 2026 Jets team involving Aaron Glenn and the team itself when they kick off on Sunday, September 13th.
The New York Jets will begin on the road against the Tennessee Titans as they will face their former Head Coach, Robert Saleh, on the opposite sideline, then come home in week 2 for the Home Opener against the Green Bay Packers. Then, the next two weeks, they continue to face NFC North opponents as Glenn will face his former head coach, Dan Campbell, at Ford Field in Detroit, then a road trip to the Windy City as the Jets face the Chicago Bears and Glenn’s former coaching staff member of the Lions offense, Ben Johnson, at Soldier Field.
The Jets return to MetLife Stadium to face the Cleveland Browns, and then start their AFC East Campaign as they travel to Foxborough to face the New England Patriots, then return to the Meadowlands to take on the Miami Dolphins. The Raiders are coming over from Sin City, then a trip to the Midwest to face the Kansas City Chiefs. Back to MetLife to face the Buffalo Bills, then a quick two-game road trip across the country at the Los Angeles Chargers, then to South Beach to face the Dolphins, before the Bye week comes. After the Bye, the Jets will face the Denver Broncos for the fifth straight time and at MetLife Stadium.
One more trip to the West Coast and the state of Arizona as they face the Cardinals at State Farm Stadium in Glendale. Two more home games against the Patriots and the new year against the Minnesota Vikings, and then finishing off the regular season, the Jets will travel to Western New York and play the Bills in their brand new stadium, which replaced the old one as it’s currently being torn down in Orchard Park. The Jets’ 2026 Schedule is ranked 12th for strength, but the hope is to get more than just the three wins they earned last season.
