Robert Saleh and the New York Jets are in full damage control mode as the head coach came out to refute a report that claimed quarterback Zach Wilson is “reluctant” to return to action if called upon to start this Sunday.

The claim was made by Zach Rosenblatt and Dianai Russini, who sent out nearly identical tweets at the exactly 6:25pm. Both claimed the Jets were leaning toward starting Wilson but that the signal caller may not be interested in coming back.

The Jets want to make a switch at QB. The team is leaning towards Zach Wilson to take over, but he is reluctant to stepping back in, sources tell @DMRussini and me.
