FLORHAM PARK, N.J. — The Jets plan to open the season with Zach Wilson as the starting quarterback and Mike White as the backup.
Between them the two have taken no NFL regular-season snaps. But general manager Joe Douglas is comfortable with not having a veteran backing up Wilson because of the scheme, the coaching and what Wilson has shown thus far.
"Where we are right now with Zach and his progression, I know we feel good about it," Douglas said.
