The second-year quarterback for the New York Jets went down during a run play, and rather than slide or step out of bounds, he attempted to juke a defender. The result was a non-contact knee strain that Jets fans have been holding their collective breath to hear more about.

Wilson was flown to Los Angeles and had a procedure performed by a renowned surgeon, revealing no serious damage to the knee after trimming the meniscus. According to NFL insider Ian Rapoport, the quarterback is recovering nicely and could still be ready to play Week 1 of the regular season. "Following surgery, #Jets QB Zach Wilson is recovering nicely and still has Week 1 in play. No surprises. They’ll be cautious until he’s 100%." While this is great news for the Jets faithful, should Wilson be late in returning to the field, the team will turn to veteran signal caller and Super Bowl winner Joe Flaco. The former Baltimore Ravens quarterback was brought in to mentor the Jets’ young starter, and to step up in cases just like this. Initially, Wilson was expected to miss two to four weeks as the injury was originally reported as a bone bruise and meniscus tear in his right knee. Moving forward, the Jets will proceed with caution and have no intention of starting Wilson until he is 100% ready to go. It’s possible we won’t see him until Week 2 or 3.
