FLORHAM PARK, N.J. — Jets quarterback Zach Wilson stood on the field throwing short touchdown passes again and again. But there was no defense lined up in front of him, so that kind of helped during this drill at practice on Friday.

Things get real again for Wilson on Sunday. The Jets are headed to Houston for a game against another 2-8 team and the resumption of the Wilson era.
