WATCH: What must Jets see from Christian Hackenberg in preseason opener?

FLORHAM PARK -- Myles White has an interesting way of looking at his performance through 10 training camp practices. The Jets' wideout isn't charting catches, touchdowns, or special teams tackles. Instead, he has taken a carpenter-like approach.

"I'm trying to build a house," White told NJ Advance Media. "Each day, I want to put up another piece of wood. Hopefully, by the end of this thing, I can say I have a home here."

A home.

Get to know White's unique story, and you understand why that's his top priority.
