Oregon quarterback Dante Moore announced he will return for the 2026 season, likely taking him off the Jets’ radar for the No. 2 pick and forcing New York to reconsider its draft strategy.

Dante Moore’s decision to return to Oregon removes the Jets’ likely top option at No. 2, shrinking the 2026 quarterback class and lowering the pick’s value.
