Jets GM Joe Douglas spoke today about Zach Wilson learning behind Aaron Rodgers, and sources say Wilson has been very receptive to the idea of a redshirt year or two. The coaches have been open with him on the plan, and good dialogue has followed on it.

So Wilson's on board.

This news obviously doesn't make a difference in typical redraft leagues, but for SuperFlex Dynasty leagues, it could be important. If the Jets build the offense up around Rodgers, but he ends up leaving in a year or two, it only makes sense that it could benefit Wilson down the road. Of course, Wilson's ineptitude is what forced their hand in the first place, but we've seen weirder things than a quarterback learning under a Hall of Fame veteran.

Now, all of a sudden, the most important thing about these final two games has nothing to do with Zach Wilson: It’s about evaluating if Mike White might be the answer at quarterback beyond this season.

The numbers look to be there for White, and you can check out the details in the article. The key thing to note is if White played a full season those numbers would be a significant upgrade at the position from what the Jets had for most of the last decade, according to the story, although those numbers obviously wouldn't be guaranteed. White hasn't been perfect but the numbers say he's the Jets best option, the story said. The story added White is a free agent this offseason so these last two games will go a long way toward determining whether White is a viable option as a starter.

Doctors cleared Jets’ QB Mike White today for contact, and he is now expected to start Sunday vs. Seattle.

This is wonderful news for fantasy, as Zach Wilson has been an unmitigated disaster as a quarterback. This moves Garrett Wilson back into fantasy relevance for Championship week.

Jets quarterback Zach Wilson was benched in favor of Chris Streveler near the end of the third quarter of New York's 19-3 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars on Thursday night. "We haven't seen the last of him. But right now he's just got to focus on finding ways to get better, and we've got to find ways to help him," said Saleh, who would not name a starter for his team's Week 17 game against the Seattle Seahawks. "It's not just him, it's collective, and we've all got to find ways to get better."

In Streveler's first drive under center, New York collected four first downs and 83 yards, both more than the Jets had in the seven previous possessions with Wilson at the helm. For the benefit of football in general, it's probably best that we don't see Wilson on the football field again in 2022.

QB Zach Wilson will start Thursday.

The turnaround comes too quick for White to get back on the field with his rib injury, so Wilson will get the start again. Wilson's coming off a 300-plus yard game with two TDs, which at least for fantasy purposes was a solid outing. Both TDs went to C.J. Uzomah, but Garrett Wilson did see nine targets and finished with a 4-98-0 line. Zach Wilson could put up solid fantasy numbers again as the Jags struggle against the pass.

Head coach Robert Saleh said Mike White has "a lot of hurdles" to go through with scans this week to see how the ribs have healed, etc. If White can't play, Saleh confirms it would be Zach Wilson as the starter. (not Joe Flacco, etc.).

As expected, Zach Wilson proved to be a dramatic dropoff in talent from White in Week 15, but Garrett Wilson still produced 98 yards on nine targets (four receptions). Both passing touchdowns went to C.J. Uzomah which helped nobody in fantasy, but that feels like a fluke, as the tight end only ran ten routes on the day. Jets fantasy options will still be in consideration next week against the Jaguars.

Jets doctors will not clear QB Mike White for contact before Sunday’s game vs. Detroit, and thus Zach Wilson will start against the Lions. White wanted to play and has practiced, but Jets doctors are not signing off. Thus, Wilson is back as the Jets’ starting QB.

By any statistical measure you want to use, Zach Wilson has been the worst quarterback in the league when he's been on the field in 2022. The last time he saw the field, he completed 38% of his passes while his leading receiver —Denzel Mims— converted one of his five targets for 34 yards. This is terrible news for all Jets' fantasy options.

With the Jets preparing for Mike White to start, coach Robert Saleh announces that Zach Wilson will be the backup QB. A promotion back to the game day roster.

The Jets offense has been better with White under center but the wins haven't necessarily come. The expectations are White will start this week in a nice matchup against the Lions, but Wilson does have the draft capital so it's not a surprise he's creeping back up the depth chart. White is also dealing with a rib injury. Wilson's climb could be more about Flacco struggling in relief of White this past week against the Bills.

Mike White is dealing with a rib injury after he was rocked throughout the Jets’ 20-12 loss at Buffalo, including being forced to leave twice because of a pair of particularly rough — but legal — hits. He went to the hospital after the game for precautionary exams, was cleared and flew home with the team.

Coach Robert Saleh said White’s rib injury will make him day to day, but he’s “hopeful” he’ll start Sunday against Detroit. White is planning to be under center with the Jets (7-6) trying to continue their playoff push.

“I’m going to prepare as such,” White said. “I feel like I can play. I feel like I’m ready to roll.”

White added from the story, “I feel good. I mean, I don’t feel like 100 bucks because I just played a football game. But, nah, I feel good.” Seems like White will be good to go for Week 15, but of course keep an eye on his practice status this week. He's got a potential high-scoring matchup with the Lions. He's played well since taking over for Wilson and has brought fantasy relevance to players like Wilson and Moore.
