In the blink of an eye, the main storyline of the New York Jets‘ 2023 season has reverted back to the same one that headlined the previous two seasons: Zach Wilson‘s development.
Going forward, Wilson’s progress is by far the most vital factor in the team’s success. The Jets are praying that their former No. 2 overall pick can finally start showing signs of the tantalizing talent that prompted the team to draft him so highly. At the very least, they are hoping Wilson can provide competency, which, despite being such a low bar, was still unattainable for Wilson over his first two seasons.
