Dan Orlovsky talks about the quarterback options for the Jets. There is a time and a place for this.

The organization will do everything it can to maximize Wilson's potential after only two seasons, according to the coach.

Wilson's future has been the subject of intense speculation due to two benchings. Wilson can take a mental break from football as soon as the season is over, according to Saleh.

"Get away from this game and read a book," he said. The best gift you can give yourself is to figure out what's important to you. How can you stick to your values day in and day out, if you don't know what you value?

It is the best gift you can give yourself. I think he needs to take a break and read a book.

Wilson is only 23 years old and many players still have a long way to go. The former BYU star was drafted second overall in 2021. After missing the first three games with a knee injury, he was benched for the first time when the team was 6-3.

"We have all the confidence in the world in him, and he has all the talent in the world." It's just a reset. We will work with him. We are, indeed. We will figure out how to get him to where we know he can be.

The Jets haven't made a commitment to Wilson as their starting quarterback in 2023. He will make a total of $9.3 million over the last two seasons of his contract.

White and Flacco will be free agents. White, who will start the finale against the Dolphins, has shown some promise in four starts this season, but the Jets might opt for a more proven commodity in the future. They are likely to acquire a veteran from the off- season market.

Mike LaFleur said that he needs to work harder. He's a New York Jet and that's not going to change. My mindset is like that.

The coaches and Wilson have acknowledged that Wilson's balance and footwork have fallen. The plan after the first benching was to have him focus on his basics, but he returned to action after only three weeks of being out with a rib injury.

Wilson was benched for the first time in his career after refusing to take accountability for a poor performance. Wilson apologized to the players.

He said that they wanted to make sure that they regained their confidence in themselves and everyone else. To make sure he's back on track, and to make sure his mechanics are correct. It's not something for him. I think that's true. We are going to do everything we can to help him.

After only two seasons, it's rare for a team to move on from a quarterback. Only two top 10 quarterbacks have lasted less than three years with their teams.

The lowest among 35 qualified passers is his QBR.
