Where did the fourth-down touchdown pass to Conor McDermott come from?

The Jets have had it in the game plan for at least the last month, acting coach Ron Middleton said. They ran the play in practice for Dan Feeney the past few weeks. But with the illnesses on the offensive line, Feeney started Sunday.

They worked with McDermott in practice this week, but Zach Wilson didn’t think they would run it.
