The New York Jets are having their first preseason game on Thursday. They are facing the Cleveland Browns in the Hall of Fame game. For the Jets QB2, this is a crucial opportunity to shine as the Jets’ starting quarterback, at least until Aaron Rodgers‘ eventual retirement.

It has been a challenging 2023 for $75 million QB, losing his starting spot to Rodgers earlier in the season. However, head coach Robert Saleh has entrusted his team’s 24-year-old quarterback with the pre-season, acknowledging Rodgers’ “little bro’s” confidence this summer. As tonight’s game result approaches, Jets’ second QB in line, Zach Wilson, is determined to exceed expectations and reclaim his spot from Rodgers shortly.

What a throw by Jets QB2!
