EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- Unheralded quarterback Mike White, making his first NFL start, rallied the New York Jets to a stunning upset over the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday at MetLife Stadium, throwing three touchdown passes for 405 yards in a 34-31 victory.
Replacing the injured Zach Wilson, White, a former practice-squad player who has been cut five times, rallied the Jets from an 11-point deficit in the fourth quarter. He threw scoring passes to running back Ty Johnson (19 yards) and tight end Tyler Kroft (13 yards) on two straight possessions.
