Zach Wilson made his Jets debut sporting the No. 2 on day one of rookie minicamp on Friday, but is the numeral here to stay?
When asked if he’ll stick with the single digit on Saturday at the Athletic Health Training Center in Florham Park, he said it’s likely, but he’s yet to make his final decision.
Wilson sported No. 1 at Corner Canyon High School in Draper, Utah. He started his BYU career wearing No. 11, but eventually switched back to No. 1. He said he wants to go with something new to begin his NFL career.

DRAPER, Utah â A Corner Canyon High School basketball player is at Primary Childrenâs Hospital with three blood clots in and near his brain.
Everest Romneyâs mother says the symptoms started after getting his first COVID-19 vaccination dose. However, she insists the clots are not directly associated with the Pfizer vaccine.
âIn a million years, I never expected it,â Cherie Romney said Friday night. âThe worst thing, the worst thing, is to have the doctor come in and say, OK, well, we found two blood clots inside his brain. â
The New York Jets select QB Zach Wilson with the No. 2 pick | 2021 NFL Draft
PROVO One of the first things that stood out to New York Jets general manager Joe Douglas about Zach Wilson and one key reason why he selected the former BYU quarterback with the No. 2 overall pick in Thursday s NFL draft was his emotion and passion.
Wilson doesn t just enjoy football. He eats it, drinks it, chews it up and spits it out then goes back to do it over again tomorrow.
But those emotions caught up to Wilson as he walked out of the green room at the NFL draft theater in Cleveland on Thursday night, grabbed a Jets Flight Crew hat off a pedestal, and went to shake NFL commissioner Roger Goodell s hand after slapping palms with a half-dozen Jets fans in the pits as the highest pick in BYU football history.

There was a time
Zach Wilson was an afterthought as far as upper-level quarterbacks in the 2021 NFL Draft go. Then, there was a time it was considered preposterous to rank him above former Clemson quarterback
We’re now beyond both of those eras, with Wilson slated to be one of the first players off the board and a number of people both in the media and within the NFL willing to put him over Lawrence.
This comes down to a lot of things that can be described in short-form as the Joe Burrow-type of rise Wilson had at BYU this past season. One quarterback Wilson models himself after is Burrow himself and who wouldn’t want to do that after the success Burrow had at LSU, finishing out an undefeated season with a win over a historically dominant Clemson team?
