The Jets have a quarterback situation between White and Wilson. The time is 1:45.
The New York Jets play their biggest December game in seven years on Sunday, and quarterback Mike White has no doubt that he will be able to play.
He said no on Thursday.
White has been getting treatment for his rib injury since Sunday, when he was hit by a Bills player. White expects to wear extra protection against the Detroit Lions, but it's not going to be crazy.
White has started every game since replacing Wilson, who was inactive for the last three games. The man will be inactive.
White was hit seven times in the loss to the Bills, but only two of them were serious. He was taken to a Buffalo-area hospital for a precautionaryCT Scan after he finished the game and impressed his teammates and coaches.
White said he was ready to start against the Lions. His confidence seems to have been boosted by two days of practice. He said that the rib feels fine and that he's feeling a bit sore from playing football.
He said that the Bills hit him on a couple of clean hits. It is what it is. It might be a recurring theme. I don't know how I can avoid those hits during the off season.
Mike LaFleur said he hasn't seen any ill effects in practice, even if he did. He's a good guy.
Last week, the Jets allowed four sacks and 21 pressures. The breakdowns need to be fixed and fixed fast, according to LaFleur.
White is 1-2 as the starter since he took over. He has completed 80 of 129 passes for a 62%) completion rate.
