“The Quarterback the Jets Need”: Amidst Aaron Rodgers Injury, Fans Pick World Champion Terence Crawford as He Steps Up to Displace Misfiring Zach Wilson

How does one excel at everything they do? Ask Terence Crawford. In the wake of his historic victory against Errol Spence Jr., the undisputed Welterweight champion has become a name that is not alien to the realm of boxing. But his story is not limited to this realm. As he still reaps the fame he earned by defeating Spence Jr. through 9th round stoppage on the 29th of July, the fighter has infiltrated the NFL world with his football prowess.

A true athlete in all senses, the one thing that cannot be dissociated from his narrative is that he is not just a great boxer. But he is also an all-rounder who has on multiple occasions demonstrated to the world his capabilities. So much so that a huge section of the community would prefer him over Zach Wilson for the Jets this season.

A Phenomenon named Terence Crawford, Fans Seek Him for the Jets

September 11th saw the New York Jets claim victory over the Buffalo Bills at New Jersey’s MetLife Stadium. However, the night was not kind to the Jets. Their star quarterback, Aaron Rodgers suffered an Achilles tendon injury that might have put him off the field for this entire season. Still looking to register more victories in the season, the Jets began looking for a replacement. Enter Zach Wilson.

A young and promising Wilson might have taken on this responsibility with much enthusiasm. However, his actions have not matched his words. The player has failed to register his dominance in the field. Amidst such clouds of uncertainty hovering over the Jets, fans have channeled their eagerness toward ‘Bud’ Crawford.

Bud was seen demonstrating his exemplary skills similar to that of a befitting quarterback. It is one of the most lethal and challenging positions on the football field. But, Bud did not fall short in matching the requirements with his prowess. One fan went on to declare Bud as the quarterback that would save the Jets this season. They said, “The quarterback the jets need.”

Addressing the well-established fact that Bud can quite literally do everything, a fan said, ” And he can passs this n*gga can do everything.” Well, he certainly can. The amount of love, adoration, and respect he’s earned is a direct consequence of the dedication he’s shown in his body of work.

Ever since his brilliant victory on the 29th of July, the fighter has emerged as a name that most believe cannot be defeated. To a certain extent, if looked closely at his career trajectory, Bud has given ample evidence for this proposition. One fan added to this argument and further claimed that the only way the fighter would see the face of defeat is if he clashed against time. They commented, “You can’t deny that arm… Bud is a athlete. The only person that can stop him is Father Time, then he’ll start mastering board games lol”

It is Terence Crawford’s era indeed. A fan rejoiced with this sentiment to further discuss how his talent surpasses expectations and history. Not just a good boxer, Bud holds the gumption to take up any sport and excel in it. The fan said, “thats the difference people dont understand about bud, hes a pure athlete not just a boxer, or 1 dimensional. Why hes a generational talent, and why he will dominate in most sports he plays.”

While the words of his prowess echo in the realm of sports, the spotlight still glares at his upcoming rematch against Errol Spence Jr. In the backdrop of the second chapter in the fighters’ saga, a fan took shots at ‘The Truth’. They commented, ” Meanwhile, Spence is still clubbing and getting ready for the rematch.”
