FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- Mike White mania took another unexpected turn on Wednesday ... and arrived in Canton, Ohio, home of the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
The jersey he wore last Sunday in his storybook starting debut for the New York Jets, when he led a 34-31 comeback win over the Cincinnati Bengals, was displayed in the Hall's Pro Football Today Gallery. So was the game ball from his 405-yard, three-touchdown passing performance.
The Hall tweeted out a photo of the display, and it's blowing up on social media, according to Rachel Gutting, the director of communications and strategic initiatives.
