The New York Jets bye is Week 13 — Sunday, December 6, 2026.
Their last game before the bye is Week 12 on November 29 (at Miami Dolphins), and they return in Week 14 on December 13 (vs Denver Broncos). For fantasy managers: plan your roster around Week 13 — every New York Jets player is off that week, so line up replacements at the positions you lean on before your waiver rivals do.
