Zach Wilson, who was the former starting quarterback for the Jets, has been traded to the Broncos and is now a third-string player. The Jets have struggled in previous seasons after starting positively, with Wilson leading the team to a 6-3 record in 2022 and a 4-3 record in 2023 before both campaigns ended poorly at 7-10.

Zach Wilson is viewed as expendable for the Broncos, especially following Bo Nix's promising performance in a recent win. With Nix securing his position as the probable starter, Wilson, as the third-string quarterback, may be traded if the right offer comes along. Wilson, a former first-round pick, is seen as a player with potential despite limited proven production. The New York Giants are identified as a potential suitor, as they could consider him a long-term developmental project behind Daniel Jones. The Rams might also find interest in Wilson as a future option behind Matthew Stafford.

Zach Wilson, currently a backup for the Broncos, has had a tumultuous career since being the No. 2 overall pick in the 2021 draft. His performance has been inconsistent, marked by a 12-21 record, a low QBR of 33.9 since 2021, and an overall completion rate of 57%. Having spent time learning under Sean Payton in Denver, Wilson is viewed as a potential developmental prospect for other teams. With the Rams lacking a high-ceiling backup quarterback, they may consider Wilson as a strategic fit, especially if McVay believes he can harness Wilson's potential.

Zach Wilson, the former No. 2 overall pick in 2021, is currently the third-string quarterback for the Broncos. Acquired from the New York Jets, he lost the starting job to rookie Bo Nix but displayed impressive preseason performance, completing 28 of 44 pass attempts for 397 yards, three touchdowns, and no interceptions. General manager George Paton highlighted Wilson's starter potential, noting his strong arm and smarts, indicating confidence in his future as a starter in the league. Trading Wilson before the November 5 deadline would also save the Broncos $2.726 million against the salary cap.

Zach Wilson, traded by the New York Jets, serves as a noteworthy comparison for Bryce Young's potential trade value. After being the second overall pick in 2021, Wilson was dealt to the Broncos alongside a seventh-round pick in exchange for a sixth-rounder. This highlights the trend of first-round picks struggling to return significant value when traded, suggesting that Young's market could face similar limitations. Wilson’s trade outcome underscores the reality that expectations for a strong return for a struggling former top draft pick should be tempered.

Zach Wilson, the former No. 2 overall pick in the 2021 draft, is currently third on the Broncos' depth chart and on a cost-effective contract after spending six months under coach Sean Payton. Despite having 33 career starts, his performance has been lackluster, with a low QBR of 33.9 since 2021. While the Titans may not be the best fit for him, Wilson remains an intriguing developmental prospect that teams like Tennessee might consider if Will Levis continues to struggle.

Zach Wilson, having struggled in his role with the Jets before being traded to the Broncos, enters the season carrying the 'bust' label. Despite his talent, he has yet to orchestrate a revival akin to Mayfield's. Wilson currently sits as Denver's QB3, with pressure mounting on him to avoid further setbacks in his career. Payton, who respects Wilson's abilities, is poised to see if he can transform into a more effective player, especially given the struggles Nix is facing. Wilson's contract runs until January 2025, making his future with the Broncos uncertain should he fail to improve.

A little over a year ago, many believed that Zach Wilson's difficulties with the Jets stemmed from a combination of his inexperience and the organization’s failure to support him. Starting as a rookie proved detrimental due to the poor state of the team, which left him unable to thrive. This led to a sense of broken confidence, raising concerns about his future and effectiveness as a quarterback. The overarching takeaway from his situation serves as a cautionary tale for Bryce Young, suggesting that an unfitted franchise can hinder a young quarterback’s potential significantly.

Zach Wilson is currently third on the depth chart for the Denver Broncos, behind starter Bo Nix and backup Jarrett Stidham, limiting his chances for playing time. He could be available at a low cost, potentially for a late-round conditional pick, and his previous experience on a less talented Jets team raises curiosity about how he might perform with Miami’s more dynamic offensive weapons like Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle.

Zach Wilson, once a highly regarded first-round pick, is now buried on the depth chart for the Broncos behind Bo Nix and Jarrett Stidham. After showing glimpses of potential during the preseason, he has become an expendable trade candidate. Given the Packers' current quarterback situation with Jordan Love’s absence and the Giants' struggles with Daniel Jones, both teams could see Wilson as a viable option to explore in the trade market.
