FLORHAM PARK, N.J. — Exactly one year ago, New York Jets quarterback Zach Wilson was benched for the first time. This one, he said, is different.
While he accepted his latest demotion without objection, Wilson said he believes he is an improved player who paid the price for an offense that has scored only nine touchdowns in 10 games.
But he doesn't think he was treated unfairly. «I don't think I was scapegoated. Absolutely not,» he said Tuesday. «You've got to look at the situation.
We're not scoring touchdowns. Regardless of what I'm doing, my job as a quarterback is to help us score points. I can sit here and say I've had a bunch of growth and tremendous whatever this year, but if you're not scoring touchdowns, it doesn't matter.
