New York Jets Head Coach Jets Robert Saleh told reporters that Zach Wilson has been cleared by his doctors and is expected to start at QB on Sunday against the Pittsburgh Steelers barring any setbacks in practice.
Wilson suffered a meniscus and bone bruise injury during the Jets preseason opener against the Philadelphia Eagles on Aug. 12. Joe Flacco has been starting in his place.
The Jets are off to a 1-2 this season and the offense could use a boost, after Sunday’s 27-12 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. Flacco turned the ball over 4 times, which included 2 interceptions.
Wilson will look to improve upon his rookie season. He threw for 2,334 yards, 9 touchdowns and 11 interceptions.
