After a disastrous 0–7 start and the poor performance of QB Justin Fields, the New York Jets have reportedly expressed interest in acquiring the superstar known as “The Passtronaut” from the New England Patriots 

Following seven straight losses and the ongoing struggles of quarterback Justin Fields, the New York Jets’ front office is urgently seeking a way out of their free-falling season. According to multiple reports from ESPN and The Athletic, the Jets have reached out to the New England Patriots to explore the possibility of acquiring Joshua Dobbs, nicknamed “The Passtronaut” — a quarterback admired throughout the NFL for his intelligence and composure.

Analyst Colin Cowherd called it “a desperate but logical move,” while several experts agreed that Dobbs is exactly the kind of QB the Jets need — smart, poised, and capable of stabilizing chaos. Dobbs made national headlines in 2023 when he led the Minnesota Vikings to victory just days after being traded, a performance the league widely described as “a miracle of preparation and poise.”

However, Dobbs’s reaction to the Jets’ interest brought Patriots Nation to tears. During a brief interview in Foxborough, he smiled and said simply:
“I appreciate every opportunity, but New England is where I’m writing the next chapter of my life. I’m not leaving when we’re just starting to take off.”

Those words quickly went viral across social media, shared by Patriots fans with hashtags #ForeverPatriot and #PasstronautLoyalty. One fan comment stood out: “You don’t need a trophy — with that kind of heart, you’re already New England through and through.”

Sources inside the Patriots organization confirmed that head coach Jerod Mayo personally met with Dobbs after the rumors surfaced, emphasizing that the team “values his loyalty and professionalism.” The Patriots view Dobbs as an ideal mentor for rookie Drake Maye, who is still learning to step into his role as the new leader in Foxborough.

While the Jets reportedly haven’t given up on their plan to “save the season” with a bold trade, Dobbs seems to have chosen a different path — staying to help rebuild the New England dynasty from within.

And at Gillette Stadium, the fans know one thing for sure:

“The Passtronaut” doesn’t just know how to fly — he knows how to make all of New England believe in the stars again. 💙❤️
