The Jets will start backup quarterback Tim Boyle and bench Zach Wilson in Friday’s game vs. the Dolphins, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported on Monday.
Wilson was benched late in Sunday’s 32–6 loss to the Bills. He completed just seven of his passes for 81 yards, with one touchdown and one interception. This will be the first game Wilson hasn’t started in since Week 1 when Aaron Rodgers tore his Achilles on the first drive.
Wilson didn’t complete a single pass to a wide receiver on Sunday, a fact that left Jets coach Robert Saleh speechless when he was asked about it after the game.
