Trying to bolster one of their weakest positions, the New York Jets acquired defensive tackles Harrison Phillips and Jowon Briggs in separate trades on Wednesday. The Jets traded two seventh-round picks (2026 and 2027) to the Minnesota Vikings for Phillips and a 2027 seventh-round pick, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter. The trade is pending a physical. The Vikings agreed to pay $3.7 million of Phillips' $7.4 million salary for 2025, a source told Schefter.

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- The New York Jets held a clandestine practice Sunday. There were no media present. There were no assistant coaches, either. It was just coach Aaron Glenn and the players. The players conducted their own drills and called their own plays. Quarterback Justin Fields ran the offense, middle linebacker Jamien Sherwood ran the defense. Word of the practice leaked Wednesday, with a handful of veterans saying they'd never been involved in a player-driven practice.

The locker room makeover features 92 customized lockers equipped with video screens for play review and highlights, making the Jets the first team with such technology.

The fully renovated locker room features 92 customized lockers and amenities including a barbershop and a larger sauna, replacing a steam room.

Justin Fields has grown in stature and regard in the Jets building without having to throw hissy fits, representing a new leadership style compared to his predecessor.
