Former Penn State QB Christian Hackenberg 'needs the ball' in Jets QB race; high expectations for Shareef Miller, and more

Today's Penn State football news headlines check in on Christian Hackenberg and the New York Jets' starting quarterback competition and features a pair of feature stories on sophomore breakout candidate Shareef Miller.

Hackenberg is battling with Bryce Petty and veteran Josh McCown in Jets training camp. McCown has earned the lion's share of first-team snaps, but Hackenberg has held his own early in training camp and makes a compelling case to take the training wheels off in his second season. Gary Myers of the New York Daily News shares the belief that the rebuilding Jets would be wise to start Hackenberg.
