As the saying goes, the most popular player in football is the backup quarterback.
Reintroduce yourself to Mike White, who, even though he is starting, is a backup quarterback at heart.
White is an underdog story, a fifth-round pick in 2018 who was fortunate to go that high. The Jets’ latest quarterback hope once transferred out of South Florida because he was losing his starting job.
White is a battler, going three and a half years in the NFL without playing a snap, biding his time and trying to impress at practice and during the preseason.
