Jets" Kyle Wilson Set to Replace Revis, if Necessary FLORHAM PARK, N.J. - As soon as the Buffalo Bills lined up in one of their favorite formations Sunday, Jets cornerback Kyle Wilson had a pretty good idea where their receivers would run. Then he stepped in front of a pass intended for David Nelson. "Didn't jump it or anything, just played it, played through it," Wilson said Wednesday. Just got out of my break, saw the ball was coming and made my play. Nothing too crazy. Wilson, a first-round draft choice in 2010, then laughed, as if the play needed a complicated explanation. His interception led to the Jets" second touchdown in a 48-28 rout, but Wilson's improving intuition could be in more demand this weekend. Wilson would replace Darrelle Revis if Revis was unable to play against the Pittsburgh Steelers, who not only have two blazing receivers in Mike Wallace and Antonio Brown but also Ben Roethlisberger, who can shrug off sacks to buy time. "You can never assume the play's over," Coach Rex Ryan said. Revis, who sustained a concussion Sunday when he was accidentally kicked in the head by Bart Scott, did not practice Wednesday, and he declined to talk to reporters. Ryan said before practice that Revis had been cleared to run and lift weights. Until Revis is cleared to play by the team physician and the Jets" independent neurological consultant, Wilson will start opposite Antonio Cromartie. The Jets figure they could be much worse off. During a conference call Wednesday, Pittsburgh Coach Mike Tomlin said Wilson "has established himself now, as a veteran presence in the slot and what he's capable of doing." Yeremiah Bell, one of the Jets" two new safeties, said of Wilson: "He's a very smart football player; you don't have to tell him something over and over. He makes it very easy to play with him. He's always on the same page; he knows his assignments; he goes out and executes. He's a very fiery guy, an in-your-face guy, and he's a very good teammate. Wilson said he had no idea if he would have made the interception against the Bills had the game been two years ago or even last season, when he had two interceptions. But he does have a much better idea of what to expect. He likes to consider himself to be, as he said, "prepared for you name it." He sits beside Revis in meetings and likes taking constructive criticism from his teammates and coaches. As the fifth defensive back on passing downs, he is positioned inside Revis and Cromartie and must cover more space. "I think Kyle's really improved, in my opinion," Ryan said. Wilson said: "I feel better. I'm now in my third year. I should be better. My goal is just to get better over time. I'm a lot smarter. I use my experience to my advantage. Revis and Cromartie had interceptions against Buffalo, and Bell scooped up a fumble late in the first half that led to a field goal. LaRon Landry, the other new safety, had nine tackles. Tomlin said Landry brings "an awesome demeanor" to the Jets. The Steelers lost their season opener to the Denver Broncos, and they will be playing Sunday in Pittsburgh - where the Jets always play the Steelers, Ryan said. During a news conference that almost turned into a soliloquy, Ryan went on and on about seeing Steelers fans wearing all sorts of replica jerseys to the stadium. "I don't know why I'm bringing that up," Ryan said, drawing laughter, "but it's Pittsburgh, and that's it." Wilson, meanwhile, is unfazed. Preparing to replace Revis - or Cromartie, for that matter - comes with the territory, he said. He said he has to know everything about playing the position, and, he quickly added, he does. "I expect the ball's coming at me every play," he said. If Revis is able to play, Wilson can just slide back into the role he had against Buffalo. But another challenge could await. Wide receiver Jeremy Kerley, who scored two touchdowns against Buffalo, had a sore lower back and did not practice Wednesday. So Wilson could also be asked to return punts. "I'm back in the mix," he said, and he meant in more ways than one. If Jeremy Kerley is unable to play, Rex Ryan said the third wide receiver probably would be Clyde Gates, who was acquired off waivers from the Dolphins.
