FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- The New York Jets opened 2021 NFL training camp on Tuesday at their Atlantic Health training center. Here's a closer look at a few storylines:
Are the Jets rushing rookie quarterback Zach Wilson into the lineup?
Yes, but it's not like the Jets are the outliers. Four of the past eight quarterbacks drafted in the top five, dating to 2016, were opening-day starters as rookies. At this point, the Jets have no choice, as they opted not to bring in competition for Wilson. General manager Joe Douglas was a member of the Philadelphia Eagles' front office in 2016, when they traded quarterback Sam Bradford at the end of the preseason and decided to roll with Carson Wentz.
