GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) — Zach Wilson directed three scoring drives and threw his first two touchdown passes of the preseason in the New York Jets' 23-14 victory over the Green Bay Packers.
Wilson went 9 of 11 for 128 yards and connected with tight end Tyler Kroft on a pair of 18-yard touchdowns to continue an encouraging preseason for the No. 2 overall pick in this year's draft.
Corey Davis caught four Wilson passes for 70 yards.
Davis signed a three-contract with the Jets worth $37.5 million after spending his first four seasons with Tennessee.
Kurt Benkert played all but the last Packers series and went 18 of 25 for 151 yards with a TD and an interception.
