  "account": "In a highly anticipated matchup between the New England Patriots and New York Jets on Sunday at Gillette Stadium, it appears that the one matchup that may truly matter is the one between Garrett Wilson and Christian Gonzalez. Wilson, the star offensive weapon for the Jets, is expected to lead the charge for his team, while Gonzalez returns to support a depleted secondary in New England.\n\nGonzalez will primary responsibility of shutting down the best player on the other side of the football, but Wilson admits that their matchups have not always been one-sided. \"I wouldn’t even say we’ve really had battles. He’s got the better of the matchup throughout these years for different reasons,\" Wilson said. \"He’s a really good player.\"\n\nWilson has had limited success in his previous three games against Gonzalez, recording just 15 receptions, 194 yards, and one touchdown. However, he remains excited to face Gonzalez again. \"Every time I get to play against a top player in this league I’m excited for the opportunity. Yeah man, he’s a great player. I know him here and there off the field. Great dude.\"\n\nWilson’s admission of the historically one-sided matchups adds an intriguing element to their fourth encounter. Perhaps he has something up his sleeve to turn the tide in their upcoming game.",
