The 2024 season was the New York Jets' 55th in the National Football League (NFL), their 65th overall, their sixth and final under general manager Joe Douglas and their fourth and final under head coach Robert Saleh. On October 8, following a Week 5 loss to the Minnesota Vikings in London, the Jets fired Saleh and promoted defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich to be the interim head coach.{{cite web |author1=Li, David K. |author2=Abdelkader, Rima |publisher=NBC News |url=https://www.nbcnews.com/sports/nfl/jets-robert-saleh-fired-rcna174473 |title=New York Jets fire coach Robert Saleh after 2-3 start and apparent tension with Aaron Rodgers |date=October 8, 2024 |access-date=October 9, 2024}} General Manager Joe Douglas was also fired on November 19 after a Week 11 loss to the Indianapolis Colts dropped the Jets to 3–8 and was replaced by Phil Savage.{{cite web | last=Bainbridge IV | first=Albert | title=NY Jets fire GM Joe Douglas after firing coach Robert Saleh last month | website=Bergen Record | date=2024-11-19 | url=https://www.northjersey.com/story/sports/nfl/jets/2024/11/19/new-york-jets-fire-gm-joe-douglas-fired-coach-robert-saleh-last-month/76427360007/ | access-date=2025-01-12}}
This was the Jets' second season after acquiring four-time MVP quarterback Aaron Rodgers from the Green Bay Packers. Following a season-ending Achilles injury to Rodgers in Week 1 of the 2023 season, the Jets tried to improve on their 7–10 record from 2022 and 2023, return to the playoffs for the first time since 2010, and end the longest active playoff drought in American professional sports, but failed to do either of those after an overtime loss to the Miami Dolphins in Week 14.
Despite the return of Rodgers and the addition of several key offensive players such as Mike Williams and Davante Adams, the Jets had their worst start since 2021, beginning the year 2–6. A Week 13 loss to the Seattle Seahawks ensured the Jets' ninth consecutive losing season, continuing the longest active streak in the league. It was also the franchise's fifth consecutive season with ten or more losses. After a Week 16 loss to the Los Angeles Rams, the Jets failed to match their 7–10 record from the previous two seasons, and suffered their worst record since 2021, and also the most losses for Aaron Rodgers in a single season as a starter. In addition, none of the team's players were named to the initial Pro Bowl roster for the first time since 2021.

Jets rookie RB Braelon Allen tied the record for becoming the youngest player to score a touchdown from scrimmage, at age 20 years, 239 days, as he scored the game winning touchdown against the Titans. Unfortunately, Pro Bowl DE Jermaine Johnson tore his Achilles and would miss the rest of the season.

Looking for their first sweep over the Patriots since 2000, the Jets once again failed to win a game they were favored and backup QB Jacoby Brissett led a game winning drive after rookie QB Drake Maye left with a concussion. Jets kicker Greg Zuerlein continued to struggle as he missed a PAT and a field goal. In addition, the Jets became the first team in NFL history to score at least 20 points, hold an opponent under 250 total yards, and not turn the ball over once, and yet lose the game.{{cite web|url=https://sports.yahoo.com/jets-became-first-nfl-team-151727577.html|title=Jets became first NFL team ever to lose when posting this stat line|website=Yahoo.com}}
