Zach Wilson and Mac Jones will always have their careers linked together. Along with Justin Fields, Trevor Lawrence, Trey Lance and other quarterbacks selected in this past year’s draft.
So naturally, Wilson has been asked about Mac with the two rookies set to square off against each other on Sunday.

But when a reporter asked Zach Wilson if he had ever studied Mac Jones’ game to help better himself, the Jets QB was clearly caught off guard.
“I mean no disrespect to Mac, but no,” he responded with a laugh. Wilson went on to say that he thinks their “games are just different,” and that Jones is a “great player.”

You gotta hand it to Zach Wilson for giving an honest answer about Mac Jones here. And he remained complimentary of Jones throughout the rest of the interview.
“I was excited for him and his opportunity, [he’s] super cool… it’s not like me and him are really competing for a spot, I got to go to my team and he got to go to his, all those quarterbacks coming out of the draft you really hope the best for,” Wilson concluded.
Mac Jones and the Patriots are currently six point favorites against Zach Wilson’s Jets.
