The New York Jets continue to struggle in a disappointing season, suffering a 19-9 defeat to the Los Angeles Rams in Week 16. This loss marked a historic low, as they became only the second team since 1940 to not punt in a game while scoring fewer than 10 points.

Rookie wide receiver Malachi Corley was activated but did not play, raising questions about his maturity and readiness. Interim head coach Jeff Ulbrich noted Corley's improvement but emphasized the need for significant contributions on special teams for young players.
