Jets limit Fields runs despite early spark

Read, Watch or Listen

The Jets opened Thursday night with a crisp 14-play, 72-yard march capped by a Justin Fields five-yard touchdown run, then sputtered with three straight three-and-outs as Fields stopped running for the rest of the half. Afterward, head coach Aaron Glenn defended dialing back his running, citing the risk of treating Fields like a running back, and said receivers need to make plays. Fields finished with 11 carries for 67 yards and 26 passes for 116, plus two sacks, and the offense moved better when he ran, even if that isn’t the plan.
