The NFL Schedule Release is a fun time of year that gives NFL fans something concrete to look forward to. It also serves as a platform for each team’s social media to show off their best work. The lead-up to the release date features some individual game reveals including primetime games, , and holiday games. The Jets’ schedule is currently unknown as they have none of these games as of yet. Instead of this exciting event, here are three things to know beforehand about the Jets’ schedule. Three Things to Know Before the Jets Schedule Releases The Jets Have a Fan-Friendly Road Schedule One of the biggest factors for fans when it comes to their team’s schedule is determining if it’s worthwhile to travel to a road game. This season, the Jets’ schedule features worthy games in spades. and are great places to travel to for a game, albeit for different reasons. Buffalo’s football atmosphere is borderline unmatched in this league, and Miami is among the nation’s most tantalizing vacation spots. For Jets fans who enjoy trash-talking fans, that’s available as always as well. As for the non-divisional matchups, they are all superb. They face the Chargers, Chiefs, Bears, and Lions. To round those non-divisional matchups out, the Jets face the Titans and Cardinals on the road. These locations are not only fantastic vacation spots, but they also feature some revenge games. The head coaches of those teams are former Jets head coach and former Jets offensive coordinator respectively. Those coaches are going to want to take down the team that sent them packing, and the Jets are going to want to prove they are better off without them. Overall, this Jets road schedule, while difficult in terms of competition, greatly benefits the fanbase. The Schedule is Difficult, But The Jets’ Peers Have it Harder As mentioned earlier, the AFC East drew the NFC North and the AFC West this year. Those divisions featured a combined four playoff teams – the Chargers, Broncos, Packers, and Bears. Their own division also featured two playoff teams in the Bills and the Patriots. That’s six playoff teams from 2025 on the Jets’ schedule this season. On top of that, the Lions and Vikings both barely missed the playoffs at 8-9. And just as it seemed it couldn’t get any worse, the Jets have to travel to face and the Chiefs, a team looking to rebound after a down year. It is not all bad though, because the Bills, Patriots, and Dolphins must also face this gauntlet. Going through each team, the Dolphins got significantly worse this offseason. They cut multiple veterans to save cap space, including their starting quarterback . The Bills will still be good, but they have a new head coach in Joe Brady. They also have a new defensive coordinator in Jim Leonhard. Finally, the Patriots, despite making the Super Bowl, will play a much harder schedule now. All three teams have a harder strength of schedule rating than the Jets. The Jets Schedule Does Not Include Much Travelling In 2026, NFL teams will travel a whopping 628,873 miles in total. Thankfully, the Jets’ schedule falls closer to this end of the spectrum, as they only have to travel 14,038 miles. That equates to 27th in the league. Travelling less mileage is to the Jets’ advantage, as it should lessen any potential for jetlag or general fatigue from travelling for the players and coaches. Similarly to the strength of schedule, all three of the other AFC East teams all will travel more total mileage than the Jets in 2026. BREAKING: The 32 NFL teams travel 628,873 miles this season. That equals 25.2 trips around the circumference of the Earth, or 2.63 times the distance to the Moon. Six teams will travel more than the distance around the earth the equator – 24,901 miles. Story In Comments 🔽 — Bill Speros (@billsperos) The reason behind the Jets not travelling very much is due to the fact that they have zero international games. Many of the top teams in this statistic are up there in mileage because they must travel to Australia, Europe, and South America. The other major reason why the Jets’ mileage is low is that they will not be visiting the West Coast of the country very much. They only go to California for one game (Chargers) and to Arizona as well to face the Cardinals. Other than that, they don’t need to go past Missouri. Overall, the Jets’ schedule is full of interesting opponents and storylines.
