Jets QB Mike White will notch start vs. Bengals

The Jets will have a new temporary starting quarterback moving forward.

Since Zach Wilson is currently sidelined 2-4 weeks with a PCL sprain, the Jets will start primary backup quarterback Mike White this Sunday against Cincinnati. This comes in spite of the fact the Jets traded a conditional 2022 sixth-round draft pick to the Eagles for Joe Flacco earlier this week.

Mike White will get his first NFL start on Sunday.

White entered this past Sunday’s loss to the Patriots following Wilson’s injury and threw for 202 yards with one touchdown and two interceptions.
