Christian Hackenberg deserves a real shot in 2017

The New York Jets have had a cycle of quarterbacks throughout the years. From Chad Pennington, Brett Favre, and Mark Sanchez, to Geno Smith and Ryan Fitzpatrick. Although the Jets have made the playoffs three times, they’ve been unable to find “the answer” at the Quarterback position. Christian Hackenberg deserves a chance under center in the 2017 season.

Head coach Todd Bowles and general manager Mike Maccagnan took a gamble when they drafted Hackenberg in the 2nd Round of the 2016 NFL Draft.
