Sports Edition Jigsaw Puzzle (New York Post)
Piece together today's New York Post sports back page as a jigsaw.
Every day: A jigsaw of that day's New York Post sports back page, one dated puzzle per day for every player, with the past two weeks in a date picker. New puzzle: Once a day, New York time.
The New York Post turns its sports back page into a free jigsaw every day. Each puzzle is filed under its date, so everyone playing that day builds the same cover, and the page keeps the past two weeks to catch up on. It is the sports companion to the Post's Front Cover jigsaw.
About Sports Edition Jigsaw Puzzle (New York Post)
The New York Post's back page is its sports cover, known for punchy headlines about New York teams. The Sports Edition Jigsaw makes that page into a puzzle each day. It sits on the Post's free games page next to the Front Cover jigsaw, the crosswords, Headline Hunters and the daily sudokus.
The puzzle runs in an embedded jigsaw player that opens on a date picker. Each puzzle carries a date, such as October 2, 2026, and the Post says you can go back and play any from the past two weeks. Because the image is that day's back page, every player on a given date assembles the same picture.
You drag pieces onto the board and fit them together until the whole page appears, with the headline coming together as you go. There is no account to create, and ads may appear around the player.
It suits sports fans and jigsaw players who want a short daily session, and readers who like seeing the day's back page headline appear piece by piece.
