Glenn said he played for overtime to avoid a backed-up situation, but the Jets lost after Green Bay held them to 199 yards.
- On Sunday, September 20, 2026, the New York Jets lost 20-17 to the Green Bay Packers in overtime at MetLife Stadium, with Head Coach Aaron Glenn facing criticism for not calling a timeout during the final minute of regulation.
