New York Jets head coach Robert Saleh is looking for more patience when it comes to struggling second-year quarterback Zach Wilson following Sunday's loss to the Detroit Lions.
quarterback Zach Wilson didn’t have all the answers in his return to the starting lineup in Sunday’s game against the Detroit Lions, but head coach Robert Saleh isn’t interested in the"instant-coffee" rhetoric surrounding the struggling second-year signal caller.went 18 of 35 for 317 yards and two touchdowns, but a costly interception in the second quarter ultimately gave way to the Jets’ third straight loss.
Zach Wilson #2 of the New York Jets signals at the line of scrimmage against the Detroit Lions during the first half at MetLife Stadium on December 18, 2022 in East Rutherford, New Jersey. "Thought he had a really nice first half. Came out, we started a little bit slow in the third quarter. Really pumped for him, though, because in the past, when he hits a speed bump in a game, it kind of derails, but I thought he did a really good job of getting back on the rails and swinging back up in the fourth quarter to lead a touchdown drive," Saleh said of Wilson’s performance.
"A lot of doctor talk, I’m not going to get into it here, but there’s more scans to see how much he’s healed. There was talk that they felt like a week could show some more healing — some callus, if you will — that will allow him to get on the field, but again, that’s something that he would have to get from another doctor and still be able to talk to our doctors about, too. So, there are a lot of hurdles he would have to go through.
