The 2026 New York Jets training camp concluded Tuesday with several key developments. Running back Breece Hall strained his groin, though coach Aaron Glenn said it is not serious. Cornerback Stiggers was taken to the hospital after collapsing at practice.

First-round tight end Kenyon Sadiq suffered a hernia setback and missed the final 12 practices; offensive coordinator Frank Reich said the team must scale back his role early in the season. The kicking competition ended with Jason Sanders winning the job over Cade York, who was waived. Geno Smith finished camp strong, completing 15 of 18 passes in a live session, distributing the ball to Garrett Wilson, Adonai Mitchell, and rookie Omar Cooper Jr. Rookie quarterback Cade Klubnik impressed Reich with his poise and is the favorite to be the No. 2 QB. Reich will call plays from the booth, a career first.

The roster must be cut to 53 by Sunday at 6 p.m., and GM Darren Mougey may seek veteran offensive line help after the second unit allowed several sacks. Starting left guard Dylan Parham sat out the final two series for an undisclosed reason.
