Jets legend Joe Namath RIPS QB Zach Wilson and calls for the Aaron Rodgers backup to be TRADED for his ‘disgusting’ play: ‘I’ve seen enough of Zach Wilson. I’ve seen enough’

NFL Hall of Famer and New York Jets legend Joe Namath has absolutely torn up quarterback Zach Wilson’s “disgusting” play for what is now the second day in a row.

Namath initially called out Wilson and the team’s brain trust on X before taking his criticism to the next level during a radio appearance on Monday and calling for Wilson’s trade.

After initially being asked if he took away any positives from Wilson’s performance in the 15-10 loss to the Patriots, Namath said sternly, “No, I didn’t take anything positive out of it yesterday.” It was horrible…Why? Did you look?’

‘Will you sit down? Are you going to see a play? Are you going down right away? What happened?’ Namath said in disbelief. “I thought you were trying to win and make plays. Have you quit a play? What is going on? It’s disgusting.’

Namath was referring to a play where Wilson was in the pocket and spun around trying to avoid the pass-rushing defense before falling to the ground.

There were no defenders close enough to Wilson to grab him, let alone sack him until he took himself to the lawn in an attempt to avoid a ghost.

“I don’t believe in him, I don’t believe he has a future as a good player, and I think they made the wrong choice when they drafted him, I think so too,” Namath continued.

Namath was eventually asked about what he would do if he thinks the Jets should do with Wilson.

“Send him to Kansas City to support someone like Mahomes, maybe he’ll learn something. I wouldn’t keep him. I’ve seen enough of Zach Wilson. I’ve seen enough. He has quick feet, he can throw a little bit, but I don’t believe what’s going on up there,” Namath as he pointed to his head.

Despite the harsh words from the franchise’s most legendary player, Jets head coach Robert Saleh doubled down Monday, saying Wilson will remain the team’s starting QB.

“You just don’t throw people away, man,” Saleh said of Wilson, whom he benched twice last season amid terrible production. “He’s not the reason we lost (Sunday).”

“I know it’s going to fall on deaf ears and whatever, but what we see day in and day out is a young man who is much better than he was a year ago,” Saleh said.

‘He is much more confident, he is much more accurate and he has much more control over the group. He looks better in the pocket.

“(It) could have been better (Sunday), but he’s improved and he’s getting better and he’s going through his progressions, and when he hits the back foot with his timing and rhythm, I mean, he looks fantastic.”

Saleh’s comments certainly won’t go over well with New York’s frustrated fan base, nor with Namath, who has seemingly echoed the thoughts of the thousands who booed the Jets offense during Sunday’s loss.

“How can a coach say the locker room is together?” Namat said.

‘How many teams have we been on? You mean to tell me there ain’t no cats on the defensive end going, ‘Woah, man, what’s wrong with you?’ There’s not just harmony in the dressing room, and if there is, they need to get people out of the way.’

Namath also called for change among the Jet’s decision-makers – Saleh and general manager Joe Douglas – as he continued his tirade.

‘These guys don’t pick the right players. They are not doing a good job of coaching. It is obvious. I mean, you have to look and see,” Namath said.

‘If you pay attention to football at all, you see that things are confused. It’s crazy. They have to fix it and that means a lot of people have to disappear and new ones have to come in. They need to make big changes, from top to bottom.”
