New York Jets quarterback Zach Wilson’s recent demotion is proof that bad things happen when facing the New England Patriots defense this season.
Following the Patriots holding Wilson and the offense to only 103 total yards in Week 11, Coach Robert Saleh announced on Wednesday that the No. 2 overall pick of the 2021 NFL draft would not be starting in the team’s upcoming game against the Chicago Bears.
Not only is he not starting, but he isn’t even going to be the backup for the game. Mike White has been green lit to start for the Jets with veteran quarterback Joe Flacco serving as the backup.
