Garrett Wilson Expects More Targets in Jets Games

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. — Jets’ offensive coordinator Frank Reich has some direct feedback on getting the ball to star receiver Garrett Wilson. It has been noted by both head coach Aaron Glenn and Wilson himself, who hasn’t held back on showing his frustration during games. Recently, in a loss against the New England Patriots, Wilson was targeted only twice through three quarters, leading to visible dissatisfaction from the player.
Follow-up by Reich confirmed a tactical commitment to involving Wilson as much as possible. Even if Wilson hasn’t complained straight to the coaches for more presence in the game plan, Reich emphasized the importance of leveraging his skills. ‘I like when they make noise,’ Reich noted, endorsing Wilson’s candid reaction to his involvement in the game. Wilson’s impressive stats this season underpin his case, with strong numbers in receptions, yards, and targets.
For upcoming games, including the match against the Miami Dolphins, Coach Reich and the Jets promise to keep their playmaker’s concerns in mind, aiming to better utilize his capabilities to influence the game outcome.
