They believed other teams were also interested in Klubnik, prompting the move, which involved trading two fourth-round picks to the Bengals while acquiring a sixth-round pick. After thorough evaluations, including a workout, the Jets prioritized Klubnik over other quarterbacks like Garrett Nussmeier. Following the draft, they signed several undrafted free agents, including kicker Will Ferrin.
