The New York Jets wasted no time bolstering their roster after the 2025 NFL Draft, adding a handful of undrafted free agents, including former Missouri quarterback Brady Cook.
With the franchise still rebuilding after the Aaron Rodgers era, the Jets are clearly searching for depth and potential at key positions, quarterback included.
Cook looks to prove himself
Cook, who started 39 games over four seasons at Missouri and was a three-time team captain, now faces the challenge of carving out a role in a competitive quarterback room.
Over the weekend, he celebrated the milestone with friends and family, including his fiancée Carli Schieferle, who popped champagne as Cook donned a Jets hat, a fitting start to his next chapter.
Last season, Cook completed 62.6 percent of his es for 2,535 yards, 11 touchdowns, and just two interceptions, adding another 223 yards and five touchdowns on the ground.
His leadership and dual-threat ability were key assets for the Tigers, and now the Jets hope to tap into that same upside during rookie minicamps and training camp.
Despite not being selected in the draft, Cook's g generated buzz among Jets fans who recognize the value of a tough, athletic quarterback who has proven he can lead a locker room.
His scouting reports highlight strong off-platform throwing skills and solid short-range accuracy, though concerns remain about his average arm strength and occasional issues with timing and mechanics.
NFL analyst Lance Zierlein described Cook as a "tantalizing prospect" who improved his command of the offense in 2023 but still has inconsistencies to iron out. Meanwhile, PFSN's Ian Cummings noted Cook's athleticism, toughness, and leadership traits as reasons he could become a reliable backup, especially for schemes that lean on quarterback mobility.
Cook's immediate path to a roster spot won't be easy, but the Jets' decision to add him without drafting a quarterback signals genuine interest in his potential.
With a strong showing over the coming months, Cook could earn himself a valuable place on a team eager for fresh talent and resilience at the quarterback position.
