Overview
- Wilson told reporters Wednesday that he will not ask for a trade and that he wants to remain with the New York Jets while stressing he is frustrated by losing.
- Offensive coordinator Frank Reich called the tension around Wilson "healthy," acknowledged the staff must do a better job getting him the ball, and said they plan to scheme more touches.
- Wilson had just two catches on three targets in the Week 7 loss to Miami and entered the week with 37 receptions for 444 yards and three touchdowns for the season.
- Media and commentators have named likely landing spots such as the Chiefs and Bills, and Wilson’s long-term deal through 2030 makes him expensive but highly tradable if the Jets choose to explore options.
- New York’s 2-5 start, Geno Smith’s play, Breece Hall’s absence and rookie Omar Cooper Jr.’s emergence are shaping usage decisions and could influence whether the team keeps Wilson or uses him to accelerate a roster rebuild.
