Castoff QB continues to prove himself during preseason

Wilson has completed 62.5% of his passes through two preseason games. 

Still only 26, Wilson signed a one-year $6 million deal with the Dolphins in January after spending 2024 with the Broncos. 

Wilson struggled mightily during his first two seasons in New York, throwing 18 interceptions in 22 games played. The Jets were 8-14 with Wilson under center.

While Wilson did show some signs of promise when forced into action after Aaron Rodgers suffered a season-ending injury in Week 1, he was never consistent enough for the Jets to feel comfortable handing him the keys to the franchise. 

Wilson started 11 games in 2023, going 4-7 with 2,271 passing yards and 211 yards on the ground. He improved his competition percentage from 54.5 in 2022 to 60.1 and posted a positive touchdown-to-interception ratio for the first time in his career. 

However, the Jets still gave up on Wilson just three years after drafting him and traded him in April of 2024. 

Even though Dolphins fans are hoping Tagovailoa can stay healthy, which would then ensure Wilson stays on the sidelines holding a clipboard, the former BYU star has been doing all he can to show he's developed into a capable NFL quarterback.
