“Zach Wilson Dazzles in Broncos’ Preseason Finale, Sparking Fury Against Jets”
Zach Wilson had a standout performance in the Denver Broncos’ final preseason game on Sunday, leading fans to blame the New York Jets for his recent difficulties. After being traded to the Broncos earlier this year following a disappointing three-year period with the Jets, Wilson showed promise in Denver, where he is set to back up rookie quarterback Bo Nix.
In the preseason finale against the Arizona Cardinals, Wilson made a strong case for the No. 2 spot by guiding Denver through four scoring drives and helping secure a 38-12 victory. He showcased his skills with a 21-yard scramble to initiate a touchdown drive and a 46-yard touchdown pass to Brandon Johnson.
Wilson’s performance led fans to criticize the Jets on social media for not maximizing his potential. Some expressed regret over how the Jets handled him, while others suggested that Wilson’s talent was overshadowed by his time with the Jets. With 33 career NFL starts, Wilson demonstrated his experience with an 11-play, 77-yard touchdown drive and finished the game with 16 completions on 25 attempts for 251 yards, two touchdowns, and no interceptions.
