Garrett Wilson is questionable to plat in Week 11 vs. the Raiders

When the Jets acquired Aaron Rodgers, he was supposed to unlock the talent that the Jets knew Garrett Wilson had. However, Rodgers’ Achilles injury quickly changed the trajectory of Wilson’s season. Once again the Jets had to turn to Zach Wilson as their starter. The former second-overall pick is doing what he can to get the ball to his WR1. 

In New York’s last game against the Raiders, Garrett Wilson injured his elbow. The 23-year-old finished the game vs. Las Vegas but has been limited most at practice.  Head coach Robert Saleh already told the media that Wilson will be on the injury report for the Jets this week. It could come down to a game-time decision as to whether or not he’s able to go vs. Buffalo.

After Wilson, Tyler Conklin has the second-most catches 33 and receiving yards 363 for the Jets this season.

#Jets coach Robert Saleh on Garrett Wilson’s (elbow) status for Week 11:

“We’ll see. He feels good, he’s speaking the right language. Everything is positive. Like I said, he’s…
