"Now, in 2025, he's with the Dolphins as a backup to starter Tua Tagovailoa. On Sunday, he'll always be one snap away from playing against his former team at MetLife Stadium when the Dolphins face the Jets. "It would be awesome," Wilson told the Sun Sentinel this week. "It would be great to obviously go out there and play. You'd love to play against anybody. I got to make sure I'm always ready to go.""
"He threw more interceptions than touchdowns in each of his first two years. When the team went to Mike White over him late in his second season, Jets players publicly supported White over the passer drafted so highly only a year and a half earlier. In 2023, the Jets brought in future Hall of Fame quarterback Aaron Rodgers deep into his career to supplant Wilson, but Wilson was thrown right back in after Rodgers tore his Achilles on his fourth play with the team."
Zach Wilson, the No. 2 overall pick in 2021, now serves as the Miami Dolphins' backup quarterback to Tua Tagovailoa in 2025 and could play against the New York Jets at MetLife. Wilson struggled in New York, throwing more interceptions than touchdowns in his first two seasons and losing the starting job amid changes that included Mike White, Aaron Rodgers and Tim Boyle. He spent 2024 as Denver's third-string quarterback and has yet to be needed in Miami while Tagovailoa remains healthy. Wilson says he has grown personally and in his ability to handle media and preparedness.
