After two consecutive losses, the pressure is mounting for the New York Jets. The organization continues to weigh the best approach for the quarterback position for the remainder of the 2023 season.

On Tuesday, the team addressed the quarterback situation — at least somewhat. The team announced the signing of veteran free agent Trevor Siemian to their practice squad.
