5 takeaways from Zach Wilson’s pre-draft press conference

Jets QB Zach Wilson spoke about the future of the team, free agent additions and the prospect of trading for Deebo Samuel on Wednesday.

Zach Wilson will watch his first draft as an NFL player this week a year after the Jets took him second overall.

Wilson spoke with reporters Wednesday about the future of the team and the additions Douglas has made – and could make – this offseason. Here are five takeaways from his press conference.
