Early in the New York Jets’ 2024 season, it’s safe to say that Garrett Wilson’s production has been a disappointment. The third-year receiver has caught just 15 of 26 targets (57.7%) for 150 yards and one touchdown.
Aaron Rodgers explained this in simple terms: defenses are doubling Wilson regularly, making it difficult to throw him the football. A 6-foot, 192-pound (soaking wet) receiver will struggle to beat double coverage. Still, that has opened up holes for other players, allowing Rodgers to spread the ball around.
