No team in the NFL had more hype coming into the 2023 NFL season than the New York Jets, with the acquisition of superstar quarterback Aaron Rodgers thought to be a game-changer for the team, as it seemed like he was the missing piece to the championship puzzle.
Unfortunately, the Jets being Super Bowl title contenders this season just wasn’t meant to be, with Rodgers going down with an Achilles injury during the team’s first offensive series of the season and Zach Wilson being unable to shoulder the load in the meantime.
The quarterback position has been a revolving door for the Jets this season, with the storied franchise trying and failing to shake things up, resulting in many changes, and now the team is reverting back to Wilson to get them through the rest of the regular season.
Even though there’s been a lot of rumors floating around about Wilson’s reluctance to become the starter again, it appears he’s fired up and ready to go, according to head coach Robert Saleh via the Jets’ Twitter account.
“He’s fired up.”

Here are some fan reactions to the latest drama unfolding in the Wilson saga with the Jets:

Man, all I know is they better draft one of these good QBs in the upcoming draft in the off-season.
Let Zach Wilson try his luck on another team.

I want the best for zach honestly rather if he’s here or somewhere else

With this likely being Wilson’s last season with the Jets, and Saleh’s for that matter, he might as well try to go out on a high note in order to showcase his skills for his next team because refusing to play is not a good look for someone that will be looking for a job in the NFL offseason.
It’ll be interesting to see how everything pans out for Wilson and the Jets and whether the team and quarterback can end things on a high note after another disappointing season.
