Jets to start Joe Flacco at QB in season finale

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- In one last twist to their ever-changing quarterback situation, the New York Jets have decided to start Joe Flacco -- not Mike White -- in their final game Sunday against the Miami Dolphins.

White was ruled out Friday after aggravating a previous rib injury on a sack at the end of the first half in last Sunday's loss to the Seattle Seahawks, according to coach Robert Saleh.

"He's just in a lot of pain," said Saleh, adding that the injury "clearly affected his ability to throw the ball" in the second half of the game.
