After watching their “starters” get beaten up by the Philadelphia Eagles, falling behind 14-0 early on, the Jets reserved made some late plays to come away with a 24-21 win. The obvious loser in the contest was quarterback Zach Wilson. The second-year QB threw a gimme’ interception on his first drive. On his second, he left the game with a knee injury and is awaiting MRI results.
Beyond that, there was a mixed bag for Gang Green.
Winners:
DL Tanzel Smart: We commented on Smart’s play quite a bit last pre-season and the practice squad lineman picked up right where he left off.
