Jets Rumors: Zach Wilson's Surgery on Knee Injury Successful; No Change to Timetable

The New York Jets can officially breathe easy, as quarterback Zach Wilson reportedly underwent successful arthroscopic knee surgery Tuesday.

According to ESPN's Rich Cimini, "there were no surprises from the original diagnosis," which projected Wilson would miss two to four weeks due to a bone bruise and meniscus tear.

ESPN's Adam Schefter added that since the Jets won't bring Wilson back until he's fully recovered, 37-year-old veteran Joe Flacco will be the team's starting quarterback for the season opener against the Baltimore Ravens.
