During a recent discussion, Woody Johnson, the owner of the Jets, forgot about Zach Wilson while evaluating the quarterback class of 2021.

This oversight highlights Wilson’s challenging time in New York, where he was drafted second overall but did not make a lasting impact.

“I think Justin Fields is going to be a total winner for us. I’ve been impressed with him since his college days – it was [Fields] or Trevor Lawrence – and I think he’s going to be really good,” Johnson stated.

Wilson’s stats in three seasons include completing 57.0% of passes for 6,293 yards, with 23 touchdowns and 25 interceptions, reflecting a turbulent career leading to his trade to the Broncos last year.

Summary

In a recent interview, Jets owner Woody Johnson neglects to mention Zach Wilson while discussing the 2021 QB class and instead praises Justin Fields. Wilson’s time with the Jets has been marked by challenges, culminating in a trade to the Denver Broncos.
