Broncos throw Zach Wilson’s future into more doubt with contract decision
NY Post
Zach Wilson’s time with the Broncos may not last too long.
The team declined the fifth-year option on Wilson’s rookie deal, according to multiple reports, meaning the former 2021 first-round pick by the Jets could be a free agent after the 2024 season.
The Broncos had until Thursday to make a decision on the fifth-year option that would have paid Wilson a guaranteed $22.408 million for the 2025 season, according to ESPN.
It will give the former Jets draft pick a chance to prove himself during the upcoming season after a tough tenure in the Big Apple that saw him throw 23 touchdown passes and 25 interceptions while posting a 57 percent completion rate during his three seasons.
