Zach Wilson

The New York media spotlight attracts a lot of attention to how its star quarterbacks are connecting with their receiver, but also who they are with off the field. You can ask Broadway Joe. There was an ugly side to the fascination with the personal lives of quarterbacks. This is the world that the young man has been thrust into.

When a spotlight was shined on Wilson's ex...receiver and his ex-girlfriend, who made things official with one another over the weekend, it all began. In January of this year, Wilson and Abbey Giles scrubbed each other on social media. Commanders receiver Dax Milne took his relationship with Giles public by posting a picture on his IG.

The internet sleuths noticed that Milne and Wilson had unfollowed each other. Athletes frequently use social media to send passive- aggressive messages. Wilson and Milne connected on 70 passes for over 1200 yards. The equivalent of smoke billowing from the Vatican after the pope dies was when Milne and Wilson unfollowed each other.

Athletes dating each other's exes is a tradition that has been around for a long time. Giles is one of the few people who succeeded in pulling off the switch. Giles started the rumor mill ablaze after she was referred to as a "homie hopper" In response to that comment on her page, she decided to air out Wilson's dirty laundry, claiming that he was sleeping with his mom's bestfriend.

I don't know what to think. They didn't end on a nice note. She didn't do as well aszac did in his first season. Wilson might have been confused about why he was catching strays.

A post like that from the ex-girlfriend of a Jets quarterback was like dropping grease on the league's plate. It provides a dopamine rush and fills our bellies, but it is just as boring as a dessert diet. It's fitting that this whole thing popped on the photo sharing site. The CW drama was too salacious for the Extremely Online NFL community to ignore. It would have been buried under training camp observations in August or September.

Wilson has been pleasantly surprised by the reaction. It is not as taboo to date a MILF as it is to date a 17-year-old. Wilson is the one who is against Mark. It would be great if he could translate that potential onto the field. Jets fans might allow him to date their mothers if he leads them to a Superbowl. Older women don't use social media. The latter trait may be a good one for him after his ex pulled a stunt.

Wilson's actual mother posted an emotional video on Sunday condemning the evils of social media and online predator. She was talking about a friend. It was assumed that she was talking about a situation with her daughter, not a group of people. The solar-powered rumor mill got more energy thanks to that development. Wilson will get it from opposing fans and even the Jets if he struggles.
