Trevor Siemian Will Serve As Backup To Tim Boyle

On Monday, Jets HC Robert Saleh confirmed that Tim Boyle will start for them in Week 12.

"<strongSaleh also announced that Trevor Siemian will serve as the Jets’ immediate backup to Boyle with Zach Wilson slotting in the No. 3 spot. 

All three quarterbacks will be active for the Jets this week.

Siemian, 31, is a former seventh-round pick of the Broncos back in 2015 out of Northwestern. Denver traded him to the Vikings in 2018 for a fifth-round pick.

Siemian played out the final year of his four-year, $2.33 million contract before agreeing to a one-year contract with the Jets worth $2 million.

He was later brought in by the Titans in 2020 to compete for the backup quarterback job but was eventually waived and added to the team’s practice squad. From there, Sieman had stints with the Saints, Bears and Bengals before joining the Jets this September. 

In 2022, Siemian appeared in two games and completed 57.7 percent of his passes for 184 yards, one touchdown and one interception.
