Zach Wilson trades Jets Green for Broncos orange

After three disappointing seasons, the 2021 second-overall draft pick Zach is set to restart his career in Denver. The Jets traded Wilson to the Broncos, marking a crucial change for both teams.

Coach Robert Saleh praised Wilson by saying, “I thought he had a great OTAs, a great training camp. I thought he battled. He fought. He’s a fighter, he really is. Obviously there’s things that he wishes he could have back and I know there’s a lot of things he improved on. Some things were out of his control.”

However, with Aaron Rodgers returning as the Jets’ starter and veteran Tyrod Taylor signed as his backup, Wilson’s future with the team became uncertain. General manager Joe Douglas confirmed that the Jets had granted Wilson’s permission to seek a trade. Wilson’s departure opens up opportunities for both parties, with the Jets moving forward with Rodgers at the helm.

In Denver, Wilson joins a quarterback room that includes Jarrett Stidham and Ben DiNucci. The Broncos, aiming to address various needs, may still be in the market for a quarterback in the upcoming draft. However, Wilson’s arrival adds depth to the team’s roster and sets the stage for an exciting competition.
