Zach Wilson was too young to remember the first time that Tom Brady won his first Super Bowl. The Jets rookie quarterback was exactly 2 ½ years old the night that Brady hoisted the first of his seven Vince Lombardi trophies.
Ever since Wilson started watching football, though, he’s seen Brady dominate games and opponents. As fate would have it, Wilson will play against Brady for the first time — and maybe the last time — in a matchup of quarterbacks with the largest age gap in 72 years.
Brady is 44. Wilson is exactly 22 years younger.
