New York Jets OTA Schedule; Minicamp & Key Dates

A Fresh Start in Florham Park for the New York Jets

With a new coaching staff in place and the quarterback position retooled, all eyes are on the New York Jets roster. The offseason program offers a valuable window for Aaron Glenn and his staff to evaluate talent, implement their schemes, and see how Justin Fields settles in with his new teammates. While OTAs are voluntary, they’re often telling, especially for teams with something to prove.

The NFL has released the full 2025 offseason workout calendar, and for the New York Jets, it’s the start of a pivotal offseason. With Aaron Glenn taking over as head coach and Justin Fields set to lead the offense, this offseason program is more than just routine—it’s a chance to build chemistry, install new systems, and set the tone for the year ahead.

Here are the key offseason dates for the Jets:

• Rookie Minicamp: May 9–11

• OTA Workouts: May 20–22, May 28–30, June 2–5

• Mandatory Minicamp: June 10–12

Here is the full press release from NFL Communications which also includes the break down about the New York Jets.

NEW YORK — April 30, 2025 — Voluntary offseason workout programs are intended to provide training, teaching and physical conditioning for players. The calendar for 2025 is below.

As per Article 21 of the Collective Bargaining Agreement, each club’s official, voluntary nine-week offseason program is conducted in three phases:

Phase One consists of the first two weeks of the program with activities limited to meetings, strength and conditioning, and physical rehabilitation only.

Phase Two consists of the next three weeks of the program. On-field workouts may include individual or group instruction and drills, as well as “perfect play drills,” and drills and plays with offensive players lining up across from offensive players and defensive players lining up across from defensive players, conducted at a walk-through pace. No live contact or team offense vs. team defense drills are permitted.

Phase Three consists of the next four weeks of the program. Teams may conduct a total of 10 days of organized team practice activity, or “OTAs”. No live contact is permitted, but 7-on-7, 9-on-7, and 11-on-11 drills are permitted.

Article 22 of the Collective Bargaining Agreement stipulates that clubs may hold one mandatory minicamp for veteran players. This minicamp, noted below, must occur during Phase Three of the offseason program.

Each club may hold a rookie football development program for a period of seven weeks, which in 2025 may begin on May 12. During this period, no activities may be held on weekends, with the exception of one post-Draft rookie minicamp, which may be conducted on either the first or second weekend following the draft.
