The clock is ticking for Jets to officially sign Zach Wilson
NY Post
The Jets report to training camp Tuesday and have their first practice on Wednesday, but there could be one missing piece … a big one.
Rookie quarterback Zach Wilson remained unsigned on the eve of training camp. It is unclear what the exact issue is causing the holdup, but it surely is a fight over the contract language. Rookie contracts are slotted under the collective bargaining agreement so players can’t hold out for more money like the old days. Wilson’s four-year contract, when he signs it, will be worth approximately $35.1 million with a $22.9 million signing bonus. A fifth-year team option is standard for first-round picks, as well.More Related News
