MORRISTOWN, NJ — Life hasn't been easy for many Jets quarterbacks, but they're surrounded by some great pizza. Newly drafted signal-caller Zach Wilson got a taste recently as he visited Morris Pizzeria.

The local pizzeria snapped a picture with Wilson, who the Jets drafted second overall last month.

Although they're called the New York Jets and Giants, both are arguably New Jersey's teams, competing and practicing in the Garden State. In fact, the Jets' training center is right in Florham Park.

Wilson will enter a tough situation with the Jets, who finished 2-14 last year. The team drafted quarterback Sam Darnold third overall in 2018. But after three tough years, the Jets traded Darnold this offseason to the Panthers for draft picks.

But no matter how the Jets fare, New Jersey pizza remains undefeated. And Wilson has plenty more he could try.
