Three Jets QBs under contract? Hackenberg, Petty and Stave

With free agency approaching (March 14), we're analyzing the quarterback position on the New York Jets:

2018 cap hits of top returnees:

Christian Hackenberg -- $1.3 million

Bryce Petty -- $843,000

Joel Stave -- $480,000

Pending free agents: Josh McCown.

Key stat: The Jets have thrown a league-high 127 interceptions since 2011. Not coincidentally, they have failed to make the playoffs in that seven-year span.

Money matters: Year after year, the Jets take a Band-Aid approach at the quarterback position.
