Nevertheless, Week 4 changed Namath’s perspective. After witnessing Wilson’s impressive performance against the Chiefs, where he even outperformed Patrick Mahomes, the former quarterback came to Zach’s defense and showed his support for him.

“I said it. I take it back. I hope he stays for 10 years.” Namath said, via Michael Kay. “As a fan, you get really frustrated. I didn’t think for a minute they were going to get rid of him. Of course, they’re gonna stick with him. And he’s going to improve. Hopefully he’ll keep improving, and hopefully we’ll start winning games.”
