Through the first two seasons of his NFL career, Zach Wilson has been one of the NFL’s worst quarterbacks in recent memory. Sporting career totals of 4,022 yards, 15 touchdowns, and 18 interceptions in 22 starts, Wilson has consistently hamstrung the Jets during his time as the team’s starting quarterback.
Wilson’s shortcomings are the result of many different on-field problems. The former BYU quarterback struggled with grasping the Mike LaFleur-coached offense, missed reads, and held onto the ball for too long. He scrambled when he did not need to and made head-scratching decisions that turned into turnovers.
