Story summary

As frustrations mount, Frank Reich, the Jets' offensive coordinator, admitted he needs to do better in involving their top receiver, Garrett Wilson. In recent games against Chicago, New England, and Miami, Wilson has struggled to get involved, with his production dropping significantly. Most recently, during a loss to Miami, Wilson was visibly upset and even argued with passing game coordinator Seth Ryan on the sideline after being targeted only three times for two catches totaling 26 yards. Despite this, Reich maintains that they are working to create more opportunities for Wilson, emphasizing his importance as one of the best players in the NFL.

Why this leaning score
This article does not take a side on a contested political question, so it has no leaning score. That is an answer rather than a gap: a match report or a rescue can be warmly or critically written without being left or right, and scoring it anyway is how approval of a subject gets recorded as a political position.
