How to Watch the New England Patriots vs. New York Jets NFL Game Tonight: Start Time and Live Stream

Week 3 of the 2024 NFL season kicks off tonight.

The New York Jets face the New England Patriots in what’s sure to be a fierce competition for Thursday Night Football. Both teams are 1-1, with the Patriots losing in overtime to the Seattle Seahawks last week and the Jets prevailing over the Tennessee Titans. The Jets are favored to win despite the Pats defeating them in the last eight matchups. 

If you’re excited to catch Thursday Night Football tonight, Amazon’s Prime Video will be the exclusive place to watch TNF for the regular NFL season.

Jets’ pass rusher Jermaine Johnson tore his right Achilles tendon in Sunday’s win over the Titans, the same injury that kept QB Aaron Rodgers sidelined for the 2023 season. With Johnson out, Will McDonald will start, and the rumored $25 million contract stand-off with Haason Reddick will undoubtedly get more intense. Rodgers, in his first game back at Metlife Stadium since last year’s season-ending injury, will rely on receiver Garrett Wilson for more crucial plays that helped them defeat Tennessee. 

On the other side of the field, the Patriots just released veteran wide receiver Jalen Reagor from the practice squad, as injuries have plagued the team. Starting tackle Vederian Lowe, guards Sidy Sow and Layden Robinson, and linebackers Ja’Whaun Bentley and Oshane Ximines are all on the Week 3 injury report. Rookie head coach Jerod Mayo will need to be strategic.
