EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- What now?
The New York Jets have turned their quarterback competition into a three-wing circus, creating a highly unusual, no-win situation as they look toward the season opener in 14 days. The tally after three games: Josh McCown is rusty, Christian Hackenberg isn't close to being ready and Bryce Petty is gaining -- but injured.
Hackenberg started for the second straight week and was awful again, throwing two interceptions (both returned for touchdowns) in a 32-25 loss to the New York Giants on Saturday night at MetLife Stadium. He threw a late touchdown pass after Petty was hurt, as the Jets almost erased a 29-3 deficit, it didn't change the story for Hackenberg.
