New York Jets. 29. team. 30. . . Previous: 31st
Zach Wilson returned and led the New York Jets to a win. Well, at least he was playing in the game while they got a win over the equally bad Houston Texans.
In one of the least entertaining games of the weekend, two teams with a record of 2-8 met and both offenses were bad. The Jets finished with 109 yards passing and the Texans had 106. Wilson also threw an interception and had no touchdown passes.
He did, however, score on a touchdown run in the game and did just enough for them to move to 3-9 with a 21-14 win over Houston. But it wasn’t really Wilson, who played in his first game since suffering a sprained right knee a few weeks ago, who led to the win. It was the Jets defense.
Not only did they hold Tyrod Taylor to just 158 yards, but they sacked him five times which is how the Texans finished with just 106 total passing yards. They also made a huge play late as Bryce Hall broke up a fourth-down pass meant for Nico Collins to hold off a late comeback try from the home team.
New York will host the Philadelphia Eagles next weekend as they look for their first two-game winning streak of the season.
