Jets QB Zach Wilson undergoes successful knee surgery, with Joe Flacco to start in Week 1
Daily MailJets fans can exhale as their latest quarterback of the future underwent a successful knee surgery to repair a slight meniscus tear, with the recovery time not expected to last long. While the Jets did not reveal a timetable for QB Zach Wilson to recover, The Athletic's Jeff Howe says he could return in four to six weeks. The Jets will be without second-year starter Zach Wilson for the first weeks of the season After only the second series of the preseason, Wilson hurt his knee and is out for a few weeks Zach Wilson's 2021 season Yards: 2,334 Completion percentage: 55.6% Touchdowns: 9 Interceptions: 11 Passer Rating: 69.7 In only the second series of the team's preseason opener, Wilson scrambled out of the pocket in an attempt to gain more yards rather than running out of bounds. Compared to the rest of the league's QBs with 13 or more games played, Wilson was bottom of the league in passing yards, completion percentage, touchdowns, and passer rating. Even when that's expanded to QBs with 12 games played, which accommodates for injured players like Baltimore's Lamar Jackson and those in turbulent locker rooms like Carolina's Sam Darnold and Chicago's Justin Fields, Wilson's stats are still last for completion percentage and passer rating.
