Jets fans can breathe a sigh of relief because it appears that they’re going to get their QB back sooner than later.
Over the weekend, Wilson injured his knee during the team’s first preseason game vs. the Philadelphia Eagles.

Wilson was later diagnosed with a bone bruise and a meniscus tear and was expected to miss 2-4 weeks.
On Tuesday, Wilson had surgery on his knee, and everything went well according to reports.
BREAKING: Zach Wilson's arthroscopic knee surgery was deemed a success, source tells ESPN. There were no surprises from the original diagnosis. They won't put him on the field until he's 100%, but good news for the Jets . #Jets

Source confirms, as @RichCimini said, that Zach Wilson’s knee surgery was a success & that there was no further damage uncovered — the best-case scenario.
He should be back in 2-4 weeks. They will not rush him, though, so I’d expect it be closer to that month time frame #Jets
