Wilson Addresses the Lack of Targets
The Pro Bowl wideout was also asked about his lack of targets and what he needs to do to become more involved in the offense.
“It’s just frustrating because we lost and I want to help the team,” he added. “I’m going to watch this film and see how I can get more separation or just find a way, get on the right page with [Geno], and find a way to make defenses pay for the looks that we’ve been getting because it’s there. We’ve just got to execute.”

Looking at the Jets
New York welcomed back rookie wide receiver Omar Cooper Jr. on Sunday, and he made an immediate impact with six receptions for 103 yards and a touchdown.
The offense is nearing full strength, with running back Breece Hall still to return. The Jets will need to turn things around soon as their margin for error continues to shrink.
They’ll face the winless Miami Dolphins next week before opening November with matchups against the Las Vegas Raiders, Kansas City Chiefs and Buffalo Bills.
