After Mike White took the world by storm with his 405-yard starting debut against the Bengals, the hope was that he would provide the New York Jets with some clarity regarding their quarterback future when he took the field against the Colts on the following Thursday night.
If White thrived once again, he could keep the job for the foreseeable future with no debate, even once Zach Wilson returned from his PCL injury. If White proved he could not sustain his breakout success, the job could go straight back to Wilson once he is healthy.
