Man — I’ve been thinking about Garrett Wilson a lot lately. As we all know, the guy has been sidelined with a nagging knee injury, and each passing week makes a return feel just a bit more urgent.

Here’s where we stand right now: after aggravating that same right-knee sprain he initially suffered back in Week 6, Wilson was placed on injured reserve, which forces him to miss a minimum of four games. The Jets just wrapped up Week 14, which means — if all goes well — Wilson could be eligible to return in Week 15 when the team takes on the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Of course, there are caveats. He needs medical clearance, and the team might decide it’s smarter to sit him out — especially since the season is already slipping away and risking a reinjury doesn’t make much sense.

On the bright side? The head coach has expressed optimism that Garrett will still suit up in 2025. And if he comes back Week 15, even for a few games, it would feel like a small win for him — and for all of us hoping to see him back making plays.
