After it was announced on Monday that the Jets are going to start Tim Boyle instead of Zach Wilson at QB, analyst Dan Orlovsky made the following comments on ESPN:
“[Robert Saleh] has to be very candidate and honest about the situation from this moment or moving forward about who is going to operate this offense next year when Aaron Rodgers is going to be healthy, because it is a disaster with what this offense looks like. You can bench Zach Wilson all you want, it will not change a single thing.”
So what is Orlovsky saying here?
The Jets should replace offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett? Who else could he be talking about? Hackett is the man who “operates this offense.”
So Orlovsky thinks Saleh might need to reconsider who “operates this offense,” even when Rodgers comes back, even though Rodgers loves Hackett, and is the coordinator the star QB wants to play under?
How would that make any sense?
