On 2nd-and-goal from the Steelers’ 2-yard line, Wilson took the snap and handed the ball off to wide receiver Garrett Wilson. The rookie then flipped the ball to Braxton Berrios, who was cutting underneath him. Berrios then found Zach Wilson all alone in the end zone for the touchdown.

It was Berrios’ first touchdown pass of his career and Wilson’s first catch and receiving touchdown of his career. He had only been targeted one other time in his career.

The Jets were up 10-0 with the touchdown.

Wilson had been out with a knee injury, which he suffered in the preseason.
