Zach Wilson has been cleared to play and will start Sunday when the Jets face the Texans in Houston, a league source said.

The rookie quarterback has missed the past four games with a sprained right PCL, but all signs pointed to him returning this week. Wilson has participated in practice the past two weeks and went through a workout on Sunday.

Wilson was cleared Monday night, the source said.
