KEY POINTS

  • Jets lose 28-25 to previously winless Dolphins at MetLife Stadium
  • Mason Taylor records five catches, 62 yards, and two touchdowns
  • Aaron Glenn falls to 5-19 overall and 0-8 against AFC East teams
  • Jets extend NFL's longest active postseason drought to 15 years
  • Glenn says the team is on the right path despite the loss

The New York Jets lost 28-25 to the Miami Dolphins on Sunday at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey. The Dolphins entered the game without a win and are rebuilding under first-year coach Jeff Hafley.

Miami opened the game with a seven-play touchdown drive and scored on three of its first four offensive possessions. The Dolphins took a 21-7 lead into halftime after Malik Willis threw touchdown passes on the team's first two drives.

“When it comes to this game, highly disappointed. Disappointed in myself, first and foremost.”

— Aaron Glenn

The Jets rallied in the second half and cut the deficit to 28-25 with 3:24 remaining. However, the defense could not stop Willis on a game-sealing fourth-and-1 push up the middle.

Mason Taylor was a bright spot for New York, finishing with five catches for 62 yards and two touchdowns. It was the first two-touchdown game of his career.

Head coach Aaron Glenn is now 5-19 overall and 0-8 against AFC East opponents. He said he is highly disappointed in himself first and foremost.

New York owns the NFL's longest active postseason drought at 15 consecutive years. Glenn said the team is on the right path because there is no quit in the players.

The loss increases pressure on Glenn as fans question whether he should remain coach beyond this season.
