Madden streamer takes cheeky dig at Zach Wilson while praising Jets QB’s new in-game card - “Wish he could do that in real life”

New York Jets quarterback Zach Wilson has been criticized a lot over the past year. He lost his starting QB job to Mike White last season, and now he will be Aaron Rodgers' backup this upcoming season.

Despite his failures on the field, Wilson recently featured as a unique card on Madden, which has made fans excited. Popular streamer Its Dom played with Wilson's new card and heaped praise about it, but Dom also took a subtle dig at the Jets QB as well.

Here's what he said:

“He's throwing dots right now man, wish he could do that in real life. He's the goat, he's only missed three passes this whole game but Zach Wilson was not done throwing dimes… Oh my goodness, this card is absolutely incredible, I think I'm in love personally.”

The New York Jets haven't given up on Zach Wilson, but the young quarterback likely faces a difficult road ahead. He was scrutinized publicly throughout last season, and now as Aaron Rodgers' backup, he must be on his best behavior.

In terms of Madden, players can certainly benefit from Wilson's new card, as he is arguably the best quarterback in the game. Hopefully, the former second-overall pick will soon rediscover himself on the field as well.

Zach Wilson will learn a lot from Aaron Rodgers

Aaron Rodgers and Zach Wilson: New York Jets Offseason Workout

Aaron Rodgers is now the new starting quarterback for the New York Jets, and he will be under a lot of pressure to deliver. The Jets are Super Bowl contenders next season, and despite all the pressure around him, Rodgers seemingly isn't worried.

The former Green Bay Packers superstar has also taken the initiative to mentor Wilson, as he thinks one of his biggest tasks as the Jets QB is to help Wilson become a better player.

The franchise has hope that once Rodgers is done playing football, Wilson will be able to take over and justify the decision of drafting him as the second overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft.
