New York Jets quarterback Zach Wilson will be given another starting opportunity on Sunday, as Mike White was not cleared to play by doctors.
Wilson was drafted by the Jets in 2021, but was removed from the starting line-up after a series of dire performances. Head coach Robert Saleh insisted the team always planned for him to return in 2022, but claimed they were working on him in practice to "try to get him back to what we know he can be."
But a rib injury to White has ruled him out of Sunday's game against the Detroit Lions, and Wilson will come back in to start. White had been training and wanted to play, but the decision has been taken out of his hands.
