Jets' Garrett Wilson: 'I Was Advised Not to Speak' on Trolling Broncos' Sean Payton

Joseph ZuckerAug 16, 2023

New York Jets star Garrett Wilson is remaining mum when it comes to Denver Broncos head coach Sean Payton, who made some pointed remarks about Jets offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett.

The second-year wide receiver was asked about his attire during an in-game interview as New York was on his way to a 27-0 win over the Carolina Panthers. He told reporters Wednesday he "was advised not to speak on it."

Whether intentional or not, Wilson would've run afoul of the sideline rules Payton laid out for Broncos players.

Payton drew the ire of the Jets when he told USA Today's Jarrett Bell that Hackett and last year's Broncos staff delivered "one of the worst coaching jobs in the history of the NFL." It was part of a larger defense of starting quarterback Russell Wilson.

His attempt to walk back the comments failed to undo the damage.

Jets star Aaron Rodgers came to Hackett's defense and said Payton "needs to keep my coaches' names out of his mouth."

Nearly a month later, it appears New York's players haven't forgotten Payton's interview with Bell.

Fans probably don't need to be reminded the Jets and Broncos cross paths in Week 5.
