Jets: Wilson faces Jackson

-

Seahawks in Seattle on Oct. 30.

Zach Wilson’s second NFL season will begin at home against former NFL MVP Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens in a difficult game against linebacker C.J. Mosley’s old team. The Sept. 11 game at Metlife Stadium will be Mosley’s first time facing Baltimore, where he spent the first five years of his career.

It also will be the first games for the Jets’ vaunted rookie class. General manager Joe Douglas earned rave reviews after drafting Sauce Gardner, Garrett Wilson and Jermaine Johnson in the first round, Breece Hall in the second and Lindenhurs­t’s Jeremy Ruckert in the third.

The Jets improved at number of positions this offseason as they look to snap the longest current streak of missing the playoffs — 11 seasons. But coming off a 4-13 record in Robert Saleh’s first year as head coach, the Jets still aren’t must-see TV.
