The New York Jets’ 2023 season is slipping, as the team lost their fourth straight game Friday — a 34-13 blowout to the rival Miami Dolphins. Head coach Robert Saleh made the decision to bench quarterback Zach Wilson for Tim Boyle, but the QB swap didn’t spark the offense like many hoped it would.

Boyle completed 27 of 38 passes for 179 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions vs. Miami, including a 99-yard pick six on a Hail Mary at the end of the first half. The Jets’ lone offensive touchdown in Week 12 came in garbage time with 4:37 remaining in the fourth quarter, while they picked up just 159 yards of total offense. 

Despite Boyle’s struggles, Saleh told reporters Saturday that the journeyman will get another chance in Week 13 vs. the Atlanta Falcons. 

“Yeah, we’re giving Timmy a chance to roll again next week,” Saleh said, via ESPN.
