FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- A look at what's happening around the New York Jets:
1. No more yips: During his worst moments in 2021 and 2022, quarterback Zach Wilson struggled to complete the so-called gimme passes, either short-arming or overthrowing targets on plays that most quarterbacks could execute blindfolded. His accuracy was historically poor.
Wilson has improved in that area, and he did it by fixing his ... feet?
The West Coast system is predicated on precise footwork, and the concepts were drilled into Wilson before the season. He spent countless hours cleaning up his sloppy footwork with offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett, passing-game coordinator Todd Downing and quarterbacks coach Rob Calabrese.
