QB Walked Off Field to Locker Room Under His Own Power; Completed 3 of 5 Passes for 23 Yards, Threw an INT.

That streak, of course will restart at 155 straight throws without a pick when Wilson returns to the field for the regular season. Wilson, who appeared to injure his right leg on a non-contact in-cut rather than taking the ball out of bounds, hobbled back toward the huddle, then sat down on the Lincoln Financial Field turf before he got there. But considering that head coach Robert Saleh said two days earlier that his starting QB and most other starters would go one or at the most two drives before leaving the field for the night, the Jets' starting QB was not returning to this game.

Hope your Friday night was better than Zach Wilson's (Deadspin)

Jets' QB suffers non-contact injury during scramble in preseason game, MRI scheduled for Saturday.

That 429-foot shot that left Fenway Park was his 46th home run of the year, and his campaign to break Roger Maris’ single-season record is a welcome distraction from the standings for Yankees fans. Sports blogs and an opportunity to deliver an apology that should’ve been issued months ago, are the only benefits of the preseason. The Jacksonville crowd didn’t seem to care though as they booed him throughout his three series of action and chanted “You sick fuck.”

New York Jets QB Zach Wilson out 2-4 weeks after suffering bone ... (ESPN)

Jets quarterback Zach Wilson has a bone bruise and a meniscus tear in his right knee and is set to miss two to four weeks, sources confirmed to ESPN.

Saleh recently said Flacco is still good enough to be a starter in the league. Wilson left the field and was taken immediately to the locker room. Flacco, who started for the Ravens from 2008 to 2018 and led them to a Super Bowl championship in the 2012 season, hasn't won a start since Week 6 of the 2019 season. Flacco, 37, is the clear-cut No. 2 quarterback on the depth chart, ahead of Mike White (three career starts) and journeyman Chris Streveler. Things looked bleak as Wilson, drafted second overall in 2021, limped to the locker room after hitting the turf without being touched by a defender. The Jets haven't ruled out the possibility of Wilson being ready for their Sept. 11 opener against the Baltimore Ravens, although that seems unrealistic because the game is only four weeks away and he will need practice time.
