Is Garrett Wilson playing today? Why Jets WRs are off to a slow start against the Broncos

With the New York Jets offense struggling, the team needs to get the most out of wide receiver Garrett Wilson in the Week 6 matchup against the Denver Broncos.

Wilson is the Jets’ leading receiver entering Week 6 with 382 yards and four scores, but one can only wonder how many more he would have if quarterback Justin Fields played better football.

Still, Wilson isn’t getting the attention his talent needs early in Sunday’s game against the Broncos in London.

Here’s what’s happening.

Is Garrett Wilson playing today?

UPDATE: Wilson has his first catch!

Wilson had his second target on New York’s fifth drive, but it only lasted for a measly two yards.

END OF UPDATE

UPDATE: Wilson has his first target on the Jets’ fourth drive.

Unfortunately, it fell incomplete thanks to an errant throw from Fields. Yet another example of Wilson being hampered by poor quarterback play, something that has happened throughout his career.

END OF UPDATE

UPDATE: Three drives, no goals for Wilson.

It was also another three-and-out for New York’s pitiful offense.

END OF UPDATE

Yes, Wilson is active, healthy and in the lineup, he just hasn’t been targeted yet.

The Jets’ first two drives both ended in a three-and-out, so Wilson didn’t have much of a chance to start.

We’ll see if route #3 is the one that moves Wilson forward.
