Jets’ Garrett Wilson decision reinforces the organization’s commitment to the tank

NFL players and coaches do not tank. No matter the record, no matter the circumstances, they are trying to win every game they play. The New York Jets, of course, are no exception to this rule.

Despite sitting as a three-win team with just three games remaining in the season, the players in the locker room and the coaching staff on the sidelines are still approaching each week with the goal of winning.

That said, this reality can exist alongside a very different organizational perspective. On Friday, Jets head coach Aaron Glenn announced that the team will not activate wide receiver Garrett Wilson from injured reserve and will instead shut him down for the remainder of the season.
