FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (CBSNewYork/AP) — Christian Hackenberg remains a big mystery for the New York Jets.
The second-year quarterback has yet to take a snap in a regular-season game, and it appears he won’t get an opportunity any time soon.
Hackenberg is the Jets’ No. 3 quarterback, stuck behind backup Bryce Petty and 38-year-old starter Josh McCown. For a player selected in the second round of the NFL draft, some might have expected a lot more progress — at least on the depth chart.
“I think the one thing with any player is they all develop at different paces and different rates,” general manager Mike Maccagnan said Wednesday.
