Jets fans hoping for Robert Saleh to bench quarterback Zach Wilson following Week 10’s loss to the Raiders will likely be disappointed by what the coach said on Monday.
Despite the offense scoring only 12 points and no touchdowns Sunday night, Saleh will continue to stick with Wilson as the Jets’ starting QB. Based on what he said to reporters, the coach doesn’t believe quarterback play is the problem right now.
“I get it, there’s a yearning for more,” Saleh said. “But I feel like he played a good game yesterday. He’ll admit that he’d want that interception back. But it is hard to make changes just to make changes, just to pacify something, especially when someone is not deserving. If he was deserving of it, I got you. Let’s change something.”
