New York Jets' Zach Wilson has hidden edge as he embarks on key offseason

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- When the New York Jets added Zach Wilson's personal quarterback coach to the staff in early November, it was portrayed as a proactive, albeit unorthodox way to help the struggling rookie during the season.

The secondary benefit to having John Beck with Wilson on a day-to-day basis is about to come into play -- offseason training.

Now that Beck has left the team to return to Los Angeles, where he operates a quarterback training facility, he can continue to "coach" Wilson after Jan. 31 without it being a violation of league rules, which prohibits players from having contact with coaches until April.
