Zach Wilson escaped an early throw, but Ian Kennelly’s interception capped the session’s sharpest Jets moment, illustrating the ongoing QB competition themes and the need for Jets’ protection consistency.

Wilson opened practice with a rough stretch, throwing three interceptions on his first three 7-on-7 attempts as receivers battled coverage and drops. The early misfires and limited connection with the pass catchers highlight the need for chemistry and offensive line time.

Wilson offered a steadier showing than Ewers in the same outing, going 5 of 9 for 96 yards. While not flashy, his performance provided a contrast to the rookie’s rough debut and reinforced his role as Miami’s alternative at backup while the depth chart sorts itself out.

Wilson led two late TD drives in a mixed showing for the Jets, moving the offense and delivering some crisp passes before a few hurried throws. The overall impression is a quarterback capable of mobility and big plays when clean, though time to throw and consistency remain a question.

Wilson, a former first-round pick, sits behind Tagovailoa in the Dolphins’ depth chart as a veteran backup with immediate experience. His presence adds a floor to the Dolphins’ QB room and influences how Ewers develops behind him.
