SALT LAKE CITY – Former BYU Cougars and current New York Jets quarterback Zach Wilson revealed his favorite romantic comedy movie.

In recent years, teams have welcomed players onto the practice field by asking them random questions and sharing the answers on social media.

The second-year NFL signal-caller and his teammates were asked to name their favorite rom-com in a video posted to the Jets’ social media accounts.

“This is a good one,” Wilson answered. “‘How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days’ — Matthew McConaughey.”

Wilson and the Jets are currently participating in offseason workouts in preparation for OTAs, which begin later in May.

About Zach Wilson

Before his time in the NFL, the Corner Canyon High School product rose up draft boards throughout his junior season at BYU.

Wilson helped the Cougars to an 11-1 record during his final season in Provo.

New York selected Wilson with the No. 2 overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft.

The first-year quarterback struggled to start the 2021 campaign and suffered a knee injury that caused him to miss a month midway through the season. After bouncing back from the injury, Wilson saw his play improve down the final stretch of New York’s slate.

Wilson finished the season passing for 2,334 yards, nine touchdowns, and 11 interceptions. He added 185 yards and four touchdowns on the ground.
