3 observations from Day 5 of New York Jets training camp

New York Jets 2025 NFL training camp is underway and will be watched under a microscope each and every day.

Throughout practices, updates are shared during the workouts which make for intriguing and important notes.

In terms of Day 5 of training camp, what stood out the most? First off, there were pads on.

Here are three observations from the fifth day of Jets training camp:

Fields full

As noted, it was a full-pads practice for the Jets on Day 5. After the team had Sunday off, Fields was practicing in a larger amount on Monday despite the pads. Per reports, he took part during 11-on-11 team drills.

Worth notining: New York head coach Aaron Glenn said Fields was "limited" after practice, but it's still a positive sign.

Fields sustained a dislocated toe during Thursday's training camp practice. He was carted off but avoided major injury.

Sloppy

Per reports including ESPN, the practice was "sloppy" at times in terms of injuries. Glenn was not happy about it. The coach previously said he is a big fan of having NFL referees present at practice in order to help in this area.

'Physical' day

When the pads go on, it's physical. An interesting takeaway for some, including the New York Post, was Monday's workout being even tougher than just pads being one. It was called a "notably" physical practice.

This could be connected to Glenn's desire to change the culture in New York.
