Fields scores in his lone series as Jets open 1st preseason under Glenn by beating Packers 30-10

GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) — As soon as he recovered a fumble in the end zone to score a touchdown, New York Jets defensive tackle Jay Tufele went over to the sideline to give the ball to his new head coach.

Aaron Glenn wasted no time giving it back to Tufele.

“I appreciated that, man,” Glenn said after making his head coaching debut Saturday, “But those guys are out there playing, so I wanted him to have his ball on the touchdown.”

Tufele and the Jets settled for giving Glenn a 30-10 victory over the Green Bay Packers on Saturday in the preseason opener for both teams. And that's a prize Glenn happily accepted.

Glenn, the former Detroit Lions defensive coordinator, said before the game he wanted to win, even though it was a mere exhibition. Justin Fields and an opportunistic defense helped make that happen.

Fields ran for a 13-yard touchdown to cap a 10-play, 79-yard drive in his lone series. He joined the Jets in March on a two-year, $40 million contract after making a combined 44 starts with the Chicago Bears (2021-23) and Pittsburgh Steelers (2024).

“We just wanted to show who we were as a team, show our identity, physicality (with) that run game," Fields said. “Once you get that run game going, everything else opens up.”

On third-and-5, Fields ran his way out of a collapsing pocket, made a move to get past Keisean Nixon’s diving tackle attempt and got into the right corner of the end zone. Fields also went 3 of 4 through the air for 42 yards, including a 24-yard completion to Andrew Beck.

Packers quarterback Jordan Love went 1 of 5 for 7 yards and neither of the two drives he led resulted in any points.

Love overthrew Luke Musgrave on a deep route across the middle and a couple of his other passes were dropped.

The Jets outgained Green Bay 403-188, forced four sacks and had two first-half takeaways that led to 10 points.

“Well, that was a humbling experience,” Packers coach Matt LaFleur said. “Definitely not what we want to put out there. I don’t care — preseason, regular season, it doesn’t matter to me. It was just sloppy football.”

Green Bay's lone touchdown came in the fourth quarter on a 39-yard run from Amar Johnson, a rookie undrafted free agent from South Dakota State.

In the second quarter, New York's Leonard Taylor got past Sean Rhyan to sack Malik Willis from behind and knock the ball loose. Tufele recovered the fumble in the end zone for a touchdown.

That led to his exchange with Glenn on the sideline.

“Whenever you get a turnover, you always want to give it to your head coach,” Tufele said. “Coach AG, he handed it back and said, ‘That’s your ball.' I appreciate him so much. He's a great coach. I'm really grateful to be here.”

Mecole Hardman, who’s trying to win a roster spot in a crowded Packers receivers room, muffed a punt that New York’s Ja’Markis Weston recovered at Green Bay's 9 to set up Harrison Mevis' 22-yard field goal.

Mevis was 3 of 3 on field-goal attempts. Green Bay's Brandon McManus made a 46-yarder.

With a knee injury sidelining Tyrod Taylor, Brady Cook and Adrian Martinez took over for the Jets at quarterback after Fields’ departure. Cook was 3 of 4 for 42 yards. Martinez went 11 of 16 for 152 yards, including a 24-yard touchdown to Stone Smartt.

Love’s only completion was a 7-yarder to rookie first-round pick Matthew Golden. The other time Love threw to Golden, it resulted in a pass interference penalty on two-time All-Pro cornerback Sauce Gardner.

Jets WR Allen Lazard left the locker room after the game with his right arm in a sling after injuring his shoulder. Glenn said Lazard will undergo testing to determine the severity.

New York RB Isaiah Davis (ankle), S Tony Adams (thigh) and RB Kene Nwangwu (calf) also left. Glenn doesn't believe any of those injuries are serious.

Packers WR Jayden Reed didn't play and was in a walking boot during the game. LaFleur said the Packers are hoping Reed will be ready for the start of the regular season.

“I think any time you see a guy in a boot, that’s a concern,” LaFleur said.

Packers S Zayne Anderson left with a knee issue. LaFleur said he didn't yet know the severity.

Both teams play again Aug. 16. The Jets will be the designated road team when they face the New York Giants. The Packers visit the Indianapolis Colts.

BEIJING (AP) — Breaking with the United States, Canada has agreed to cut its 100% tariff on Chinese electric cars in return for lower tariffs on Canadian farm products, Prime Minister Mark Carney said Friday.

Carney made the announcement after two days of meetings with Chinese leaders. He said there would be an initial cap of 49,000 vehicles on Chinese EV exports to Canada, growing to 70,000 over five years. China will reduce its tariff on canola seeds, a major Canadian export, from about 84% to about 15%, he told reporters.

“It has been a historic and productive two days,” Carney said, speaking outside against the backdrop of a traditional pavilion and a frozen pond at a Beijing park. “We have to understand the differences between Canada and other countries, and focus our efforts to work together where we’re aligned.”

Earlier Friday, he and Chinese leader Xi Jinping pledged to improve relations between their two nations after years of acrimony.

Xi told Carney in a meeting at the Great Hall of the People that he is willing to continue working to improve ties, noting that talks have been underway on restoring and restarting cooperation since the two held an initial meeting in October on the sidelines of a regional economic conference in South Korea.

“It can be said that our meeting last year opened a new chapter in turning China–Canada relations toward improvement,” China's top leader said.

Carney, the first Canadian prime minister to visit China in eight years, said better relations would help improve a global governance system that he described as “under great strain.”

He called for a new relationship “adapted to new global realities” and cooperation in agriculture, energy and finance.

Those new realities reflect in large part the so-called America-first approach of U.S. President Donald Trump. The tariffs he has imposed have hit both the Canadian and Chinese economies. Carney, who has met with several leading Chinese companies in Beijing, said ahead of his trip that his government is focused on building an economy less reliant on the U.S. at what he called “a time of global trade disruption.”

A Canadian business owner in China called Carney's visit game-changing, saying it re-establishes dialogue, respect and a framework between the two nations.

“These three things we didn’t have,” said Jacob Cooke, the CEO of WPIC Marketing + Technologies, which helps exporters navigate the Chinese market. “The parties were not talking for years.”

Canada had followed the U.S. in putting tariffs of 100% on EVs from China and 25% on steel and aluminum under former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, Carney’s predecessor.

China responded by imposing duties of 100% on Canadian canola oil and meal and 25% on pork and seafood. It added a 75.8% tariff on canola seeds last August. Collectively, the import taxes effectively closed the Chinese market to Canadian canola, an industry group has said. Overall, China's imports from Canada fell 10.4% last year to $41.7 billion, according to Chinese trade data.

China is hoping Trump’s pressure tactics on allies such as Canada will drive them to pursue a foreign policy that is less aligned with the United States. The U.S. president has suggested Canada could become America's 51st state.

Carney departs China on Saturday and visits Qatar on Sunday before attending the annual gathering of the World Economic Forum in Switzerland next week. He will meet business leaders and investors in Qatar to promote trade and investment, his office said.
