Arr, avast ye scurvy scallywags! 'Tis said that after the Jets be likely losin' their fine quarterback Aaron Rodgers fer the rest o' the season, Colin Kaepernick's agent hath reached out to the crew, as per a tale.
The New York Jets have named Zach Wilson as their starting quarterback following Aaron Rodgers' season-ending injury. Rodgers sustained a torn Achilles after being sacked in the first quarter of Monday's game. The Jets managed to secure a victory in overtime with Wilson at the helm, but it is uncertain if he will remain the starter for the rest of the season.The team is considering other options at the quarterback position, including signing a veteran free agent or making a trade. One potential option is Colin Kaepernick, who has expressed interest in returning to the NFL. Kaepernick's agent reached out to the Jets following Rodgers' injury, according to reports. However, Kaepernick, who is 35 years old and last played in the NFL in 2016, has faced obstacles in his attempted comeback, including a controversial workout in 2019.
Despite the uncertainty surrounding the quarterback position, Jets head coach Robert Saleh has declared that the team is moving forward with Wilson and that "this is Zach's team." Wilson was the second overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft but has had a challenging start to his professional career, struggling in his first two years and being benched last season.
As the Jets evaluate their options, it remains to be seen if Wilson will be able to lead the team effectively or if they will pursue other alternatives, such as Kaepernick. In the meantime, Wilson will take charge of the offense as the Jets navigate the remainder of the season.
