Broncos throw Zach Wilson’s future into more doubt with contract decision
NY Post
Zach Wilson’s time with the Broncos may not last too long.
The team declined the fifth-year option on Wilson’s rookie deal, according to multiple reports, meaning the former 2021 first-round pick by the Jets could be a free agent after the 2024 season.
The Broncos had until Thursday to make a decision on the fifth-year option that would have paid Wilson a guaranteed $22.408 million for the 2025 season, according to ESPN.
It will give the former Jets draft pick a chance to prove himself during the upcoming season after a tough tenure in the Big Apple that saw him throw 23 touchdown passes and 25 interceptions while posting a 57 percent completion rate during his three seasons.
The situation came to a head this season when he struggled after Aaron Rodgers went down four plays into the 2023 campaign with a torn Achilles.
He will get a fresh start in Denver, though he’ll be one of several QBs in the mix.

Cade Cunningham, almost inarguably the best player in the East this season, is likely out for the remainder of the regular season. That’s the word out of Detroit following the depressing news that Cunningham punctured a lung when he took a knee to his side Tuesday from Washington’s Tre Johnson while chasing a loose ball.

Wednesday was another positive day at Yankees camp. For the first time since March 6, 2025 — an outing in which he knew “something wasn’t right,” which began a weeks-long saga that ended on the operating table for Tommy John surgery — Gerrit Cole was back on a mound and facing hitters in game action.
