The Jets offense was out of sorts from the first drive that saw two dropped passes which could have resulted in touchdowns.
Quarterback Sam Darnold only connected with Crowder twice and it netted eight yards.
Darnold found Crowder on a screen passes that lost a yard and then connected once again with the former Blue Devil on a curl route that gained nine yards for the Jets.
Despite only having two receptions on the afternoon, Darnold did look for his slot receiver quite often, targeting Crowder nine times, the second highest on the team behind wide receiver Robby Anderson who was targeted ten times.
This was the second straight game that Crowder saw a dip in his numbers as he only caught four passes for 18 yards last week in a win over the Oakland Raiders.
Prior to the win over Oakland, Crowder scored a touchdown in the previous three games, two resulting in Jets victories.
In 11 games played, Jamison Crowder has been targeted 77 times catching 55 of those passes for 580 yards and three touchdowns.
With its slim playoff hopes just about gone with a 4-8 record, the New York Jets will look to try and get some revenge against the Miami Dolphins, who beat the Jets to also record its first win of the season back on November 3.
Jamison Crowder and the New York Jets will take the field at MetLife Stadium on December 8 with kickoff slated for 1:00pm EST and the game can be seen on CBS.
