The New York Jets have been dealing with uncertainty at the quarterback position for weeks, but it looks like they may have finally found their answer. Reports are indicating that Trevor Siemian is likely to start at quarterback for the Jets on Thursday night against the Cleveland Browns. This comes after Sam Darnold was ruled out due to a shoulder injury, and Joe Flacco was placed on injured reserve with a neck injury.
The Jets have also been dealing with uncertainty surrounding the health of David Fales, who was signed to back up Darnold. Fales has been dealing with an illness that has kept him from practicing, and it is unclear whether he will be ready to play on Thursday night.
The Jets have also been monitoring the health of David Wilson, who has been dealing with a hamstring injury. Wilson has been a key contributor for the Jets this season, and his presence in the lineup would be a major boost for the team. However, it appears that Wilson is unlikely to be ready to play on Thursday night, leaving Siemian as the likely starter.
Siemian has been with the Jets since the beginning of the season, and he has experience starting in the NFL. He started 24 games for the Denver Broncos from 2016-2017, and he has thrown for over 4,000 yards and 24 touchdowns in his career. He will be facing a tough Cleveland defense on Thursday night, but he should be up to the task.
The Jets will be hoping that Siemian can provide some stability at the quarterback position, and that Wilson can return to full health soon. Regardless, it looks like Siemian will be under center on Thursday night, and the Jets will be hoping he can lead them to victory.
