Watch: Jets QB Zach Wilson catches touchdown pass in 2022 season debut

By Adam Gretz | Last updated 10/2/22

New York Jets quarterback Zach Wilson made his 2022 season debut on Sunday in Pittsburgh and he wasted no time in making an impact.

It just might not be the impact that is expected of him.

Instead of throwing a touchdown pass, he was CATCHING a touchdown pass on a trick play to give the Jets a 10-0 lead.

THE CATCH.
THE GRIDDY.

That is wide receiver Braxton Berrios taking the reverse and then easily flipping a two-yard pass to Wilson who was wide open for his first ever NFL touchdown catch.

The Jets have barely played with a lead this season, but have changed that in a big way early on Sunday by jumping out to the two score lead in the first half.
