PROVO, Utah – Check out this time-lapse video of Zach Wilson donning a New York Jets uniform.
Utah artist Aljay Fuimaono was the artist behind the mural located off Center Street in Provo, the home of BYU’s campus. Wilson led the BYU football program the past three seasons, and he capped off his collegiate career with an 11-1 season in 2020.

Bose contracted Fuimaono to create the mural. The premium audio equipment company had an NFL draft campaign spotlighting three blue-chip prospects in Trevor Lawrence, Justin Fields, and Wilson. Each player had a mural with a tagline, “Defeat the Noise. Rule the Quiet.”
Fuimaono began working on the mural last Friday. He completed the mural on vinyl after Wilson officially became a member of the New York Jets.
