Garrett Wilson made brutal quote about Jets’ struggles after loss to Cardinals

The New York Jets see their NFL season end after Sunday’s 31-6 loss to the Arizona Cardinals, losing their sixth of their last seven games.

After a emphatic win over the Houston Texans last week, Aaron Rodgers and the Jets failed to build on their momentum and struggled to put up points against Arizona. Rodgers, who found himself at the center of some embarrassing partscompleted 22 of 35 passes for 151 yards and no touchdowns.

Garrett Wilson finished as the team’s leading receiver with five catches for 41 yards, marking the eighth straight game in which the young player had at least five catches.

But Wilson looked dejected after another disappointing loss this season and took no notice of his team’s offensive performance.

“You go out and play like that, you know it’s going to be hard to find that energy,” Wilson told reporters. “I don’t think we approached this with the wrong mentality, I don’t think we approached our meetings, our practices this week the wrong way. I just think at the end of the day it’s about Sunday. I say that all the time… The energy isn’t there because we play like trash.

The Jets settled for two field goals in the first half and failed to score for the rest of the game. New York’s exciting offensive duo of Rodgers and Davante Adams, who totaled nearly 100 yards in the Week 9 win over the Texans, looked out of sorts against the Cardinals, with Adams recording six catches on 13 targets and letting dropping a potential touchdown late in the game. game.

The Jets (3-7) will look to bounce back when they host the Indianapolis Colts next Sunday.
