When is the New York Jets bye week in 2026?
The Jets have their bye week scheduled for Week 13 (the weekend of Dec 6, 2026). No games are played that week, giving the roster a recovery window between a Week 12 road game at Miami and a Week 14 home matchup vs. the Denver Broncos.
How many home games do the New York Jets play this year?
Under the NFL’s 2026 scheduling rotation, the Jets host nine regular-season games at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, NJ, with eight games on the road. Home opponents include the Packers, Browns, Dolphins, Raiders, Bills, Broncos, Patriots, and Vikings (Week 17).
What channel broadcasts the Jets games?
Sunday afternoon AFC matchups primarily air on CBS, with cross-conference home games appearing on FOX. The 2026 main slate has no primetime kickoffs scheduled for the Jets, though Week 18 flex assignments may add one.
What does low-ink printable mean for this schedule?
Our design strips away heavy stadium photography, corporate backgrounds, and large solid-color gradients. The grid uses clean borders and minimal color accents – primarily the helmet images themselves – so the sheet stays crisp and legible while saving meaningful printer toner versus a full-color magazine-style schedule.
