**Jets Stick with Zach Wilson After Losing Aaron Rodgers** In a shocking turn of events, it has been reported that the New York Jets have decided to stick with Zach Wilson as their starting quarterback for the 2023 season, despite losing Aaron Rodgers in a trade. Rodgers, a perennial All-Pro and Super Bowl winner, was acquired by the Jets in March in a blockbuster deal from the Green Bay Packers. However, just four snaps into the season, Rodgers suffered a season-ending Achilles injury. This left the Jets with Wilson, who has struggled mightily in his first two NFL seasons. Wilson has completed just 55.6% of his passes with 20 touchdowns and 20 interceptions. Despite Wilson's struggles, the Jets have apparently decided to give him another chance. This is reportedly due in part to Wilson's reluctance to step back into a backup role. The decision to stick with Wilson has been met with mixed reactions. Some believe that the Jets should have given up on Wilson and signed a more experienced quarterback. Others believe that Wilson deserves another chance to prove himself. Only time will tell whether the Jets have made the right decision. But one thing is for sure, the 2023 season will be a pivotal one for Zach Wilson.
