Aaron Rodgers and Deshaun Watson will not be starting Thursday's Hall of Fame Game between the New York Jets and Cleveland Browns.
Instead, it will be Zach Wilson facing off against Kellen Mond in the NFL's first preseason contest of the year:

For the Jets, it will be a chance to see how much Wilson has improved this summer after losing the starting gig to Rodgers.
