Why Jets’ lingering Zach Wilson trade dilemma could reach uncomfortable end
NY Post
The trade market for Zach Wilson may be less active than a colony of slugs.
The Jets have been hoping to move Wilson this offseason but the outlook is bleak after watching teams trade other quarterbacks from the 2021 NFL Draft class for pennies on the dollar.
The Patriots sent Mac Jones, who was taken 13 picks after Wilson, to the Jaguars in exchange for a 2024 sixth-round pick.
The Bears traded Justin Fields, who was taken No. 11 overall in 2021, to the Steelers and only received a 2025 conditional sixth-round pick that can become a fourth based on his playing time.
So, what does that mean for Wilson?
You can definitely argue that Jones and Fields have shown more promise than Wilson.
One man is already seemingly trying to get his foot in the door to become the next head coach of the Jets.

PHOENIX — Jalen Brunson didn’t want to comment on the NBA looking into his father’s promotion and contract as a potential salary-cap circumvention, but the point guard certainly had a message to anybody questioning Rick Brunson’s coaching credentials.
PHOENIX — Wednesday brought some cautiously optimistic updates for the Knicks frontcourt.
The Greatest Escape in franchise history was perpetrated by Glen Sather, when the general manager extricated himself and the Rangers from the final five years of Scott Gomez’s contract by moving the $7,357,143-per-year center to Montreal on June 30, 2009 after two years in New York.
The Yankees publicly are on the same page: Hal Steinbrenner, like Brian Cashman and Aaron Boone before him, said that issues with the club’s fundamentals did not hover over the team all season.
The first day of the rest of Daniel Jones’ dwindling time with the Giants arrived Wednesday, with Jones in the building, in the meetings, on the practice field (although not doing very much) and not at all part of the game plan for the next game, relegated to a non-participant role for the remainder of the season.
