Complementing Elijah Moore, Corey Davis and Braxton Berrios, the Jets’ second first-round selection of the 2022 NFL draft (10th overall) quickly rose to the top of the Jets wide receiver depth chart in his rookie season. Finishing with over 1,000 yards receiving, the Ohio State product took home NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year honors.
Now, Garrett Wilson is poised to build upon his incredible rookie season with a future Hall of Fame quarterback at the helm. Just how much Aaron Rodgers enjoys throwing to his new No. 17 will be on full display in 2023.
Garrett Wilson ‘Mosses’ the Philadelphia Eagles
In spite of a solid statistical day—eight receptions for 90 yards and no scores—Garrett Wilson’s performance in Week 6 went a long way in the New York Jets’ win over the NFC champion Philadelphia Eagles.
One of his eight receptions went for 33 yards down the right sideline—featuring him “Moss” the defensive back (going over the top with the two-handed grab).
Garrett Wilson makes a clutch, circus catch against the Bills
With the New York Jets needing a play, Garrett Wilson made it happen.
His circus catch in the end zone tied the game at 13 against the Buffalo Bills in Week 1. Finishing with five receptions for 34 yards and that touchdown, Wilson didn’t overwhelm in Week 1, but he made the most out of a tough situation (Aaron Rodgers going down early).
