Zach Wilson just might not get another chance to prove himself during the 2022 season.
The New York Jets benched starting quarterback Zach Wilson and the team is flourishing on the field without him against the Chicago Bears.
According to FOX Sports NFL insider Jay Glazer, the franchise has “lost confidence” in Wilson.
“Jay Glazer reports that the #Jets have lost confidence in Zach Wilson,” Dov Kleiman tweeted.
Wilson’s struggles came to a head in Week 11’s 10–3 loss to the Patriots. He completed just 9-of-22 passes for 77 yards in the game and was sacked four times. The offense was completely atrocious with him behind center.

It took a week for it to look good without him. The Jets have already benched Zach Wilson for the foreseeable future in favor of Mike White and he delivered in a big way against the Bears.
White might be the answer because the damage Wilson did to his image might be irreparable at this point.
He’s only in his second year in the league, so he still has time to turn it around, but it may have to wait until year three.
