The National Football League will showcase the New York Jets throughout the country on three occasions during the 2023 NFL Preseason.

Back in March, the League unveiled the summertime Hall of Fame Game matchup that features Gang Green and the Cleveland Browns on August 3. The annual exhibition, which will air live on NBC beginning at 8:00 pm ET, is part of a week-long celebration at the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton, OH.

With Jets' legends Joe Klecko and Darrelle Revis set for enshrinement on Saturday, August 5, the Green & White will kick off the NFL Preseason schedule two days earlier at Tom Benson Stadium, which lies adjacent to the Pro Football Hall of Fame. 

The Jets-Browns Thursday night battle will be the first game of the NFL's 104th season. The other 30 teams won't begin preseason play until the following week. 

After announcing finalized dates and times for every NFL Preseason contest on Wednesday, the league office unveiled the NFL Network's live game broadcast schedule on Thursday. NFL Network will carry 23 live games during the month of August, including two exhibitions involving the Jets.

Gang Green is slated for the second leg of an NFL Network quadruple-header on Saturday, August 12, visiting the Carolina Panthers and No. 1 overall draft pick Bryce Young for a 4:00 pm ET kickoff.

NFL Network will feature the annual Jets-Giants preseason rivalry game on a national stage this summer. Gang Green will be the designated road team for the 2023 edition of the contest formerly known as the "Snoopy Bowl." The two MetLife Stadium co-tenants will square off on August 26 at 6:00 pm ET.

Jets' quarterback Aaron Rodgers likely won't see the field much, if at all, during the NFL Preseason schedule. Teams have developed a habit of holding veterans out of early August games.

Jets' Preseason Games with dates and times — Aug. 3 vs. Browns (8:00 pm ET); Aug. 12 at Panthers (4:00 pm ET); Aug. 19 vs. Buccaneers (7:30 pm ET); Aug. 26 at Giants (6:00 pm ET)
