Cade Klubnik Lands Jets Backup Spot | New York Jets News

Cade Klubnik, the Clemson QB who backed up DJ Uiagalelei before leading the Tigers to an ACC title and a College Football Playoff, has officially earned his spot on the New York Jets’ 53-man roster as Geno Smith’s backup. Despite a shaky preseason outing that included an interception, Klubnik’s standout practice performances sealed his place over other QBs like Brady Cook and Bailey Zappe. With over 10,000 passing yards and 73 touchdowns in college, Klubnik brings elite experience and poise — qualities Jets coach Aaron Glenn says he’ll use well. And with Dabo Swinney confident in his NFL future, don’t be surprised if Klubnik steps into the spotlight when needed.
