The Jets’ second-year QB Zach Wilson (knee) has been medically cleared and is preparing to make his season debut against the Steelers.
Jets coach Robert Saleh announced on Wednesday that Wilson cleared medical tests and will start, barring any setbacks, when New York plays the Steelers in Pittsburgh on Sunday.
Wilson has yet to suit up this season due to a meniscus tear and bone bruise in his right knee that he sustained in the team’s preseason opener. He underwent surgery in August.
