New York Jets' contract dispute with Zach Wilson a bad look, makes no sense

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- After a promising offseason that reenergized their fan base, the New York Jets reminded everyone Wednesday not everything has changed for the better.

Rookie quarterback Zach Wilson, the new face of the franchise as the Jets' No. 2 overall draft pick this year, was nowhere to be found on the first day of training camp. The first-team offense was commanded by Mike White, a former practice squad player who has yet to take a snap in an NFL game.

If it had been an open practice, the fans would have booed the Jets, justifiably so.
