FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- Owner Woody Johnson believes the New York Jets are a quarterback away from ending their 12-year playoff drought, and he's willing to spend big bucks for a proven veteran.
"Absolutely," he told a small group of reporters Thursday in his office at the Jets' facility. "We've got a cap, so there's an amount you can spend. But, yeah, yeah. That's kind of the missing piece."
Zach Wilson was supposed to be a key piece when he was drafted second overall in 2021, but he was benched twice in 2022 and appears headed for a backup role in 2023.
