The New York Jets are benching quarterback Justin Fields in favor of Tyrod Taylor, according to multiple reports Monday.

The Jets (2-8) are coming off a 27-14 loss Thursday night to the New England Patriots in which Fields threw for just 116 yards on 15-of-26 passing. He finished with fewer than 200 passing yards and a completion rate below 60% for the fourth time in his last five games.

Taylor, 36, made one start in Week 3 when Fields was in concussion protocol. He performed well in a 29-27 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, completing 26 of 36 passes for 197 yards, two touchdowns and one interception.

Fields, 26, has amassed 1,259 yards through nine starts, throwing just seven touchdowns with one interception.

He signed a two-year, $40 million contract in free agency after failing to establish himself as a franchise quarterback with the Chicago Bears or Pittsburgh Steelers.

The Jets, who rank at the bottom of the league in passing yards per game (139.9), will visit the Baltimore Ravens (5-5) on Sunday afternoon.
