Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson was among the most vocal supporters of Zach Wilson when he entered the game in relief of the injured Aaron Rodgers in Week 1.
Speaking to reporters on Thursday, Wilson discussed his belief in New York’s new starting quarterback and why he was so outspoken about it on the sideline during the team’s season opener against the Bills.
“Because of the effect that that can have on people. Belief. People believing in you,” said Wilson, via Harrison Glaser. “Sometimes it can seem like the world is against you, but it’s never really the case. We’ve always got our guys back... If he doesn’t know that, then I’m doing my job wrong. I want to make sure I give him all the empowerment in the world, and I know all the others guys feel the same about it.”
