Report: Jets don't plan to shop Wilson
New York Jets general manager Joe Douglas doesn't plan to explore trading quarterback Zach Wilson in the 2023 offseason, sources told NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.
Wilson's difficult second season has included multiple demotions. He was benched for Mike White in Week 12 after a string of inconsistent performances. He returned to the starting lineup when White was sidelined with a rib injury but was benched once again for Chris Streveler at halftime of a Week 16 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. After White was cleared to return, Wilson was named the third-string quarterback in Week 17.
However, head coach Robert Saleh has maintained his commitment to Wilson throughout the signal-caller's struggles. He told reporters this week that he still believes the 23-year-old has a "future" with the organization.
The Jets selected Wilson second overall in the 2021 NFL Draft. He's posted a 8-14 record with more interceptions (18) than touchdowns (15).
