FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- In an unusual midseason move, the New York Jets have added former NFL quarterback John Beck -- Zach Wilson's personal coach -- to the coaching staff for the remainder of the season, sources told ESPN.
Beck, wearing a headset and Jets coaching garb, was spotted on the sideline during Sunday's 34-31 victory over the Cincinnati Bengals. Though his exact role is unclear -- the Jets haven't commented -- Beck will be on the sideline for every game.
The move is significant because Wilson, the second overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, has been struggling.
