Jets make major decision regarding Zach Wilson

The New York Jets have announced that second-year quarterback Zach Wilson will be the starter for Thursday's game against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Quarterback Mike White has been ruled out with an injury.

Wilson will start his second straight game after being demoted to the bench following a poor performance against the New England Patriots in Week 11. After leading the offense to just three points, Wilson said in a press conference that "he did not let the defense down."

The quarterback later apologized for his comments.

The Jets are in the middle of a playoff race, but they've lost four of their previous five games, and if the season ended today, they'd be eliminated. After playing for the Jaguars on Thursday, they'll end the regular season with two away games against the Seattle Seahawks and the Miami Dolphins.
