In addition to his “Zach Across America Tour” with receivers, the second-year quarterback has put on weight to better withstand the weekly punishment of the NFL.
Focused on his team and himself, the quarterback Zach Wilson win during the campaign break.
When he wasn’t throwing to catchers on his “Zach Across America Tour,” the sophomore quarterback for the New York Jets He was working on his body. Listed at 6ft 2in, 214lbs, Wilson will never be confused with Josh Allen (6 feet 5 inches) or Justin Herbert (6 feet and 6 inches), which is why his goal was to add weight, in order to better absorb the weekly punishment.
Successful mission.
“He looks meaty, in a good way,” the head coach said. Robert Saleh.
Wilson he said he wanted to do it “the right way” with a focus on a healthy diet. Those close to him say that he has become finicky regarding what he eats. He tried to gain weight in the past, going as high as 218 pounds, but was not comfortable from an athletic standpoint. This time, he took it slow and steady, in order to maintain his quickness and ease when shooting. He didn’t divulge his current weight, but the change is evident to everyone around him.
“Looks like he’s put on some weight,” the linebacker said. C.J. Mosley, smiling. “She’s been in the gym. Maybe she went to Miami and [los jugadores que entrenan allí] they put him on the right track. I don’t know if they were lifting weights in BYU. But, that’s the difference between the first year and the second year. Your body begins to change, you are a little older, and you begin to differentiate between what you should do and what you should not do. It’s part of being a professional and growing up.”
Wilson he’s showing he wants to get better following an unimpressive rookie season. He is doing and saying the right things, receiving praise for mature behavior, but that will only take him so far. This is a production business, and he needs to produce a lot more than he did last year.

On pass attempts between 1 and 10 yards, he completed a league-low 62 percent, 10 percent below the league average. NFLaccording to data from ESPN Stats & Information. If he can get to that rate, which translates to a couple more completions per game, the offense will be in a better place.
