New York Jets quarterback Zach Wilson will miss at least three games as he recovers from arthroscopic knee surgery, the team announced Wednesday.

Initially, he was expected to miss one or two games. Explaining the decision, coach Robert Saleh said Wilson won't play until Week 4 "at the earliest." The Jets face the Pittsburgh Steelers on the road that week. 

 
This means the Jets will open the season with Joe Flacco at quarterback, starting Sunday against the Baltimore Ravens -- the team that drafted him in 2008 -- at MetLife Stadium.
