The New York Jets won\u2019t be facing former Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers in Friday night\u2019s preseason game against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Rodgers will be sitting this one out on the sidelines. That removes the whole \u201crevenge game\u201d factor. Of course, in a preseason game, how much revenge can one get? With Geno Smith possibly also missing the game, we may be in for a battle of the 2026 draft pick backup quarterbacks. Cade Klubnik may be in line for the start with the Jets, while Drew Allar should see plenty of playing time with the Steelers. Brady vs Manning this ain\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Here are your links to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ganggreennation.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">New York Jets<\/a> this glorious Thursday in August.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newyorkjets.com\/news\/jarvis-brownlee-jr-jets-defense-building-through-training-camp-08-18-2026\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Randy Lange<\/a> &#8211;
