No. 5 Mike White
Currently on pace to compete for the Jets’ backup quarterback job, White inherits the number from the Philadelphia-bound Joe Flacco.
Notable Previous Wearers: K Pat Leahy
No. 14 D.J. Montgomery
The Jets wasted no time in redistributing Sam Darnold’s old jersey, as Montgomery takes a number normally reserved for New York passers.
