Whatever, Tyreek Hill: Tyler Conklin picked the Jets because of Zach Wilson

New York Jets tight end Tyler Conklin has some differing thoughts than Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill.

Hill has made numerous headlines throughout the offseason thanks to his analysis of Tua Tagovailoa.

Hill has done the media rounds and went above and beyond the realm of being a good teammate. He’s gone on the record multiple times comparing his new quarterback with the Dolphins to his old one with the Kansas City Chiefs, Patrick Mahomes.

You know, Mahomes, the MVP and Super Bowl champion? Hill even said Tagovailoa is more accurate than Mahomes.

OK, Ty…

In terms of New York and the Jets, it’s well known that Gang Green tried to trade for him. The All-Pro receiver had a bit of a say in the matter and he opted to be traded to South Beach over the Big Apple.

In explaining why, he cited Tagovailoa’s accuracy as a better option again.

Conklin did not specifically call out Hill, nor did he mention Tagovailoa. However, he did discuss why he signed with the Jets during the start of training camp.

Wilson was a big part.

“One is Zach, a young, talented quarterback,” Conklin said.
