New York Jets quarterback Zach Wilson has been labelled the "worst quarterback" the New York Patriots have played "in years" after his awful performance against the Foxboro side on Sunday.
Wilson was selected by the Jets with the second overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft and played in 13 games as a rookie. He helped the Jets to a 4-13 record as he personally went 3-10, throwing for 2,334 yards and nine touchdowns while also tossing 11 interceptions.
It was an underwhelming campaign but head coach Robert Saleh and general manager Joe Douglas appeared to construct a solid roster heading into the 2022 season. An exciting draft class paired with an elite defence meant the pressure was on Wilson to perform - especially with rookie weapons at receiver (Garrett Wilson) and running back (Breece Hall).
