$130million Jets superstar quits mid-play before yelling at coach after farcical fourth down amid boos

Wait 5 sec.

The 0-5 New York Jets look all out of sorts.Having headed across the pond to London for a ‘home’ clash against the Denver Broncos at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, the Jets have been unable to find their rhythm on offense. Garrett Wilson appeared to quit on the Jets after New York let the clock run down on 4th and 1GettyBut as the seconds were quickly ticking away to close the first half, Jets star wide receiver Garrett Wilson was left incensed at head coach Aaron Glenn after he failed to run a play in a 4th and 1 situation.At this point, the they were trailing the Broncos 10-6.Wilson, who landed a four-year, $130 million extension in July, walked off the field before the whistle was blown.“The Jets were booed off the field at halftime, after refusing to try to run a play despite having 20 seconds left on the clock and being at their 47-yard line,” talkSPORT’s senior US Sports reporter Brian T. Smith said at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.“New York‘s offense was on the verge of NFL relegation, and it was clear that the Jets were afraid to let Justin Fields throw the ball.”That particular play left many fans and reporters around the NFL confused to what happened, including former NFL quarterback Kurt Warner. “Somebody please explain that last Jets drive??? Not really sure what I just watched!” the Pro Football Hall of Famer posted to X (formerly Twitter). “I have no idea what the #Jets just did or wanted to do. They lined up early for the 4th and 1 … then just kinda stopped?,” SNYtv’s NFL reporter Connor Hughes wrote.“Garrett Wilson was HEATED coming off the field. He started walking back before the offense snapped the ball or clock ran out. “He was yelling. Glenn calmed him down.“Good Morning Football host Kyle Brandt wrote: “Give the Jets this. They’re incredible TV. With them, I can’t believe what I see. I just watch. The end of that first half was The Red Wedding.Even former NFL Network voice Dan Hanzus got in the act, posting: “The Jets are a completely unprepared operation.”View Tweet: https://t.co/hD5KlBCLDOComing out of the half, Wilson was seen with his helmet off on the sideline, though he returned to the contest.In the build-up to their game in London, Wilson spoke exclusively to talkSPORT, where he spoke about the team buying-in to Glenn – who is in his first full season as the Jets’ head coach – after taking over in January 2025. “People have gone about things with this blueprint before and it’s and it’s worked, you know, and for me, what else do you need to see,” Wilson said.“I’m obviously a believer in everything he says and the things he believes, but not to mention when you have the testimony from years prior, it’s like, okay, let’s keep grinding at this thing.“Let’s keep our head down and it won’t be all for nothing.”Stay up to date with the latest from the NFL across all platforms – follow our dedicated talkSPORT USA Facebook page and subscribe to our talkSPORT USA YouTube channel for all the offseason news, interviews and more.
