Wilson Traded to Denver: The Fine Print
Jetson Deal Sends Struggling QB Packing
Behind the Scenes of a Monumental Move
The New York Jets made a bold move on Monday, trading away quarterback Zach Wilson to the Denver Broncos. The move comes after three disappointing seasons with the Jets, where Wilson failed to live up to expectations.
The details of the trade are as follows:
- The Jets receive: A 2024 second-round pick, a 2025 fourth-round pick, and a 2026 conditional pick
- The Broncos receive: Zach Wilson
The trade is a clear sign that the Jets are moving on from Wilson, who was selected with the No. 2 overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft. Wilson struggled mightily in his three seasons with the Jets, throwing for only 4,110 yards, 28 touchdowns, and 15 interceptions. He also had a dismal completion percentage of 55.6%.
The Broncos, meanwhile, are hoping that Wilson can be the answer to their quarterback woes. The Broncos have been searching for a franchise quarterback since Peyton Manning retired in 2016, and they believe that Wilson has the potential to be that guy.
Only time will tell if the trade will be a success for either team. But for now, it's clear that the Jets are moving on from Wilson, and the Broncos are hoping that he can be their next great quarterback.
