Zach Wilson breaks silence on being replaced as Aaron Rodgers weighs in on his conduct

New York Jets quarterback Zach Wilson is excited to be working with Aaron Rodgers, despite being replaced as the team’s starting quarterback.

The Jets traded with the Green Bay Packers to sign Rodgers, which ended his 18-year stint in Wisconsin. The 39-year-old became part of the Jets roster after a trade which saw several draft picks handed to the Packers, including a conditional 2024 second round pick that becomes a first round if the quarterback takes part in at least 65 per cent of offensive snaps in 2023.

With Rodgers entering the building, it will mean that Wilson will almost certainly have to drop down to be the Jets’ back-up quarterback. Wilson was drafted by the AFC West team in 2021 with the second overall pick and is preparing for his third season in the NFL.
