Siemian completed eight of 20 passes for 70 yards and rushed twice for one yard in Sunday's 17-3 win over the Patriots.

EDGE Analysis

Siemian isn't exactly a prolific passer in pristine conditions, so it's no surprise that he struggled in snowy Foxborough, but Breece Hall's 178-yard rushing performance and the defense carried the Jets to victory. Siemian finishes the season with 724 passing yards, two touchdowns and four interceptions in five appearances (three starts). He was the fourth man up under center for the Jets after Aaron Rodgers (Achilles), Zach Wilson (concussion) and Tim Boyle, so Siemian will likely be looking to land a backup job somewhere next season.

Jets head coach Robert Saleh said Wednesday that Siemian will start Sunday's season finale against the Patriots with Zach Wilson (concussion) having been ruled out for Week 18, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Siemian will make a third consecutive start to close out the season. Across two previous starts and two relief appearances, Siemian has produced a 2:4 TD:INT while averaging a paltry 4.9 yards per pass attempt. With Siemian and Bailey Zappe at quarterback for the Jets and Patriots, respectively, Sunday's game is unlikely to feature much offensive firepower.

Siemian completed 32 of 45 passes for 262 yards with a touchdown and an interception in the Jets' 37-20 loss to the Browns on Thursday night. He also rushed four times for 13 yards.

EDGE Analysis

Siemian's yardage total looks relatively impressive in a vacuum, but less so when put into the context of the fact he averaged just 5.8 yards per attempt. The journeyman signal-caller once again focused heavily on Breece Hall for safe throws, connecting with the versatile back on nine occasions. No Jets pass catcher with at least four receptions averaged more than the modest 10.0 yards per grab Garrett Wilson recorded, underscoring how cautious Siemian generally was. If Zach Wilson (concussion) is recovered in time for the Week 18 regular-season finale against the Patriots on Sunday, Jan. 7, Siemian will almost certainly take a seat for that contest.

Siemian will remain the Jets' starting quarterback for Thursday's game against the Browns, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Head coach Robert Saleh confirmed Tuesday that Zach Wilson has yet to clear concussion protocol and will miss a second straight contest, paving the way for Siemian to make another start. Siemian was at the helm for the Jets' 30-28 win over the Commanders this past Sunday, but New York raced out to a 27-7 halftime lead mostly on the back of a defense that forced two turnovers in opposing territory and a productive Breece Hall-led run game. The Jets then coughed up their lead with less than five minutes remaining in the fourth quarter, but Siemian was able to help guide the team to a game-winning 54-yard field goal on their last possession and finished his first start with 27 completions on 49 attempts for 217 yards, one touchdown and one interception. He may need a better performance against a tough Cleveland defense to keep the starting job heading into the Jets' season finale versus the Patriots on Jan. 7, provided Wilson clears the protocol before then.

Siemian completed 27 of 49 passes for 217 yards and a touchdown with an interception in Sunday's 30-28 win over the Commanders. He also gained 18 rushing yards on four carries but lost a fumble.

EDGE Analysis

Despite a matchup against arguably the worst secondary in the NFL, Siemian made little effort to stretch the field, with his longest completion going for 16 yards to Garrett Wilson. A huge performance from Breece Hall, both on the ground and through the air, built a 27-7 lead for the Jets by halftime, but after the defense squandered it in the second half, Siemian was able to lead a successful two-minute drill that ended in a game-winning field goal by Greg Zuerlein with five seconds left on the clock. There's no guarantee Zach Wilson will be able to clear the league's concussion protocol in time for Thursday's game against the Browns, so Siemian could get another start in Week 17 against a much stingier opponent.

Siemian will start Sunday's game against the Commanders in place of Zach Wilson, who was ruled out Friday due to a concussion, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

EDGE Analysis

Siemian will face a Washington defense that's at or near the bottom of the league in numerous statistical categories, though he'll have the keys to an offense that's been equally bad or perhaps even worse, averaging 14.4 points (30th in NFL) and 255.1 yards per game (32nd). Poor quarterback play has been a large part of the Jets' offensive struggles, and it's a trend Siemian is unlikely to change given his career 58.5 completion rate and 6.6 yards per attempt. He's fared poorly in his two relief appearances this season for the Jets in Weeks 13 and 15, completing 19 of 39 passes (48.7 percent) for 176 yards (4.5 YPA), with no touchdowns, two interceptions, four fumbles (two lost) and five sacks.

Siemian completed 14 of 26 passes for 110 yards, no touchdowns and two interceptions after replacing Zach Wilson (head) in the second quarter of Sunday's 30-0 loss to the Dolphins. He also lost a fumble.

EDGE Analysis

New York trailed 24-0 at the time Siemian came into the game, and his insertion unsurprisingly didn't lead to a change in momentum. After the Jets finally crossed midfield for the first time in the third quarter, Siemian badly overthrew Randall Cobb for an interception. New York's next two possessions also ended in Siemian turnovers (a fumble and another interception). If neither Wilson nor Aaron Rodgers (Achilles) gain clearance to play in Week 16, Siemian would be in line for his first start of the season against the Commanders.

Siemian completed five of 13 passes for 66 yards, no touchdowns and no interceptions after replacing Tim Boyle in the fourth quarter of Sunday's 13-8 loss to the Falcons. He added an eight-yard rush and fumbled three times, losing one.

EDGE Analysis

Siemian entered for New York's first possession of the fourth quarter after Tim Boyle was picked off on the Jets' last drive of the third. The 31-year-old journeyman wasn't impressive in his first action since Week 12 of the 2022 season, putting the ball on the ground three times and turning it over on downs to cap New York's final possession. Siemian's in the mix to start in Week 14 against the Texans, but even if the Jets choose him over Boyle and Zach Wilson, Siemian's unlikely to find much success in an offense that's struggled all season.

The Jets signed Siemian from their practice squad to the active roster Tuesday, Ethan Greenberg of the team's official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Siemian joined the Jets a little more than two weeks after Aaron Rodgers tore his Achilles in the season opener, but the former remained on the practice squad Weeks 4 through 11. After another dismal effort from Zach Wilson on Sunday at Buffalo, though, coach Robert Saleh has opted to go with Tim Boyle as the team's starting quarterback moving forward, with Siemian serving as the No. 2 signal-caller and Wilson moving to third-string status. Siemian made two appearances (one start) for the Bears last season, completing 15 of 26 passes for 184 yards, one touchdown and one interception.

Coach Robert Saleh announced Monday that Siemian will be the Jets' backup quarterback to Tim Boyle in Friday's game against the Dolphins, Andy Vasquez of The Bergen Record reports.

EDGE Analysis

Siemian has been biding his time on the practice squad since Aaron Rodgers went down with his torn Achilles, but he'll now get a chance to be active on game day this week. There's a decent chance we see Siemian playing before season's end. Zach Wilson will also be active Friday as the third quarterback, according to Saleh.
