The 2023 season was the New York Jets' 54th season in the National Football League (NFL), their 64th overall, their fifth under general manager Joe Douglas and their third and final full season under head coach Robert Saleh. The season, which was entered with Super Bowl aspirations, was a major disappointment for the team, finishing at 7–10 for the second consecutive season, and failing to improve on their record from 2022. It was also the Jets' fourth consecutive season with at least ten losses.
With the acquisition of quarterback Aaron Rodgers in an offseason trade with the Green Bay Packers, expectations were high, but a multitude of key injuries (most notably, Rodgers suffering a season-ending torn Achilles tendon in Week 1 after only 4 snaps) and subsequent poor quarterback play from Zach Wilson and Tim Boyle led to a disappointing season. While the team started out 4–3, they then suffered a five-game losing streak before going 3–2 in their final five games. As result, the Jets missed the playoffs for the thirteenth consecutive season, extending the longest active postseason drought in the NFL. They also finished below .500 for the eighth consecutive season.
The preseason was documented on the HBO television show Hard Knocks.
