BT and Sal were live on air to react to the Jets signing Trevor Siemian, and it’s safe to say they were less than inspired.
“Give up! How do you do it as a Jet fan? Give up!” Sal said to BT. “They aren’t worth it! Trevor Siemian? That’s what you come up with, three weeks after the fact?
“What are they doing not going all in to get a proven guy?”
BT didn’t have an answer.
“I’m not gonna mouth an ounce of defense for this…are they tanking?” BT said. “I think we have to start asking the question. Are they actually trying to tank?
“If Trevor Siemian is actually playing meaningful snaps this season, I will start actively betting money against the Jets. I will return to that pathetic existence.”
Siemian is reportedly being signed to the practice squad, so it is unlikely he would see any game action, at least not any time soon, and the move seemingly confirms the Jets’ belief in Zach Wilson, as he will remain the starter with Gang Green, at least for now, not adding a veteran quarterback that will realistically compete for the starting job.
Sal wanted to see the team sign a player that can take Wilson’s spot, but it does not appear to be happening just yet.
