Overview
- The New York Jets have officially granted quarterback Zach Wilson permission to seek a trade, marking the end of his tenure with the team.
- Wilson's performance has been underwhelming since being drafted second overall in 2021, with more interceptions than touchdowns over three seasons.
- Financially, trading Wilson would save the Jets $5.45 million but incur a $5.7 million dead cap penalty.
- Potential trade destinations for Wilson include the Vikings, Steelers, Ravens, Chiefs, Saints, Colts, Cardinals, Chargers, Eagles, Seahawks, Titans, Patriots, and Buccaneers.
- Wilson's trade value is expected to be low, with comparisons suggesting no more than a conditional sixth- or seventh-round pick.
