Garrett Wilson is on the board for the season.
The rookie wideout scored his first touchdown in a Jets uniform in the second quarter of the team’s 31-30 win over the Browns, converting a 2-yard pass from Joe Flacco on a fade route to tie the game at sevens.
The score came after a gutsy fourth down call from Robert Saleh, who dialed up a fake punt at the team’s own 46-yard line. Braden Mann hit Jeff Smith for 17 yards and the Jets were in business.

A Jacoby Brissett touchdown to Amari Cooper gave the Browns a 14-7 lead later in the second quarter.
Later in the half, Hall added his first career touchdown on a 10-yard catch from Flacco, tying the game at 14, which held at halftime. The Iowa State product went into halftime with 36 rushing yards as well.
