Jets vs Giants NFL Preseason Week 2 Preview

We will see a battle of New York take place on Saturday Night. MetLife Stadium will be the site for this highly anticipated matchup.

The Jets defeated the Packers 30-10 in their preseason opener. Signal-caller Justin Fields threw for 42 yards and rushed for one touchdown.

Former Nebraska quarterback Adrian Martinez threw for 152 yards and one touchdown. The Jets' starters could see some action tonight as head coach Aaron Glenn has not disclosed his plan for Week 2.

We can expect to see Fields briefly followed by Adrian Martinez and Brady Cook.

The Giants defeated the Bills 34-25 in Week 1. Russell Wilson went 6-for-7, throwing for 28 yards, while Jameis Winston threw for 62 yards and one touchdown.

Rookie Jaxson Dart threw for 154 yards and one touchdown. I love this spot for the Giants.

The Giants have the stronger quarterback play, and I expect their offense to be sharp tonight, which will lead to a cover.

My Pick: Giants -3.5
