Who will Jets play at QB vs. Eagles? Sam Darnold? Nope, maybe a private-equity intern!
Now checking in at quarterback for the New York Jets: a private-equity intern.
Come the fourth preseason game against the Philadelphia Eagles, there's a chance the Jets trot John Wolford out to lead the huddle. About a week ago, Wolford was huddling with a private equity fund in North Carolina.
"It would be an internship and we were still figuring out what that would be," Wolford said. "I was a finance major at Wake Forest, so that's the industry track, technically, I would go if football didn't work out."
For right now, though, Wolford is trying to make football stick. And he could get that chance come Thursday night at Lincoln Financial Field.
