The Jets made the White move.
Backup quarterback Mike White starred in his first start after replacing the embattled Zach Wilson on Sunday. He threw for 315 yards and three touchdowns as the Jets rolled past the banged-up Bears, 31-10, at rainy MetLife Stadium.
The desperately-needed win pushes the Jets’ record to 7-4 and keeps them in an AFC wild card spot with six weeks to go in the regular season. They still have some work to do. They have already lost the tiebreakers to the two teams immediately behind them (the Bengals and Patriots) and they are about to play back-to-back road games at the Vikings and Bills.
