The New York Jets entered Week 14 with many questions, particularly at their quarterback position.
Zach Wilson was named the starter despite significant controversy leading into this game.
While he might not have wanted to be there, Wilson led the Jets to a 30-6 victory over the Houston Texans.
This performance was received well by analysts across the league, and he impressed many of his doubters, including Craig Carton.
Carton said in a recent segment of his show, “Zach Wilson played so well yesterday, he may remain a Jet.”

Wilson’s role on this team is undetermined moving forward.
Much of his future could hinge on how he finishes the season and whether he can keep leading the Jets to wins.
Plus, Aaron Rodgers will likely be the team’s starter in 2024, pending his inability to play based on his Achilles injury.
Wilson’s on-field play has been the team’s biggest concern regarding his future.
While his career has been a roller coaster to this point, he did put up 301 yards and two touchdowns against the Texans in his comeback performance.
The next several weeks should be telling for Wilson’s trajectory in New York.
For now, he can only control his on-field output and his attitude within the locker room.
Wilson might have a future as a Jet if he can win back the locker room in the last four weeks of the season.
If things don’t improve, and he goes back to lackluster performances, he might be out the door, waiting for another team to give him a chance.
