Pro Football Talk reports the Broncos won’t pick up Zach Wilson’s fifth-year contract option.

30 April 2024

The option would’ve paid Wilson $22.4 million, but that’s much too rich for a quarterback who’s thrown only 23 touchdowns (and 25 interceptions) in 34 games with the Jets. While Wilson will get a chance to compete, the future of the team for now is Bo Nix who the Broncos selected in the first round of the 2024 NFL Draft. Wilson could benefit career wise from a fresh start and new scene in Denver.
