A brutal performance by Zach Wilson in the New York Jets’ Week 3 loss to the New England Patriots has many speculating about other possibilities for the quarterback position, but veteran quarterback Matt Ryan has crossed himself off the list.

Ryan’s comments follow a report from FOX Sports NFL insider Jay Glazer over the weekend that linked him and Carson Wentz to the organization. According to the report, the two veterans had reached out to the Jets.
