NY Jets to face Denver Broncos’ backup quarterback

After originally being labeled a game-time decision for his team’s Week 7 duel with the New York Jets, Denver Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson is now expected to miss the game, per reports.

While Russell Wilson wanted to play despite a hamstring injury and did everything he could to play, the Broncos HC Nathaniel Hackett will hold back the 9-time Pro Bowl QB vs. the Jets to allow him to heal and prevent a lingering injury, per sources.
