    Mike White Officially Listed As Questionable

    New York Jets quarterback Mike White (ribs) is officially listed as questionable for the Week 18 regular season finale against the Miami Dolphins. Despite the questionable tag, head coach Robert Saleh said on Friday that White will not play in a meaningless game for the Jets after he was beat up again in the Week 17 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. Instead, veteran Joe Flacco will close out the season under center, with Zach Wilson backing him up. White suffered five fractured ribs in Week 14 against the Buffalo Bills. The 27-year-old looked much better than Wilson in his four starts in 2022, but he'll be an unrestricted free agent this offseason, and it's unclear if the Jets have interest in bringing him back to compete for the starting QB gig in 2023.

    Mike White Downgraded To Limited On Thursday

    New York Jets quarterback Mike White (ribs) has been downgraded to a limited practice session on Thursday. This is not a good sign for his chance at playing in the Week 18 matchup against the Miami Dolphins. The 27-year-old has already missed two games this season because of a fractured rib. The Jets aren't playing for anything, so possibly they decide to let White sit and get healthy. It's likely that Joe Flacco would start in his place, but it would make sense for Zach Wilson to get another shot under center. Fantasy managers should check back on Friday for another update on White's status.

    Mike White Puts In Full Practice, Will Start In Week 18

    New York Jets quarterback Mike White (ribs) was able to put in a full practice during the team's walkthrough on Wednesday. Head coach Robert Saleh said that White will remain the starter in Week 18 against the Miami Dolphins. Joe Flacco will back him up again and Zach Wilson will remain inactive. White returned from a two-game absence and looked pretty bad in last week's loss to the Seattle Seahawks, ensuring the Jets will not make the playoffs. The 27-year-old is playing with a fractured rib, so he's far from 100 percent and could struggle again on Sunday as the Jets get one more look at White heading into the offseason. White won't cost much in DFS, but he's not recommended and profiles as a low-end QB2 in superflex leagues.

    Mike White Should Be Good For Week 18

    New York Jets head coach Robert Saleh said that quarterback Mike White (ribs) is fine and should be ready to play in the Week 18 regular season finale against the Miami Dolphins after dealing with some normal soreness after the Week 17 loss to the Seattle Seahawks that eliminated the team from playoff contention. With the Jets potentially viewing White as a starting option under center to begin next season, they'll want to get another look at him. He looked bad in his return from a two-game absence on Sunday against Seattle, going 23-for-46 for 240 yards, no touchdowns and two interceptions. White was also sacked four times and lost a fumble. Treat him as a low-end QB2 in superflex leagues in the final game of the season in what will be his fifth start of the year.

    Mike White Cleared To Face Seahawks

    New York Jets quarterback Mike White (ribs) has been cleared to play on Sunday, so he will start against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 17. White's return is great news for wide receivers Garrett Wilson and Elijah Moore and arguably all of the offensive weapons as a whole. In his first game since Week 14, White is a solid streaming option against the Seahawks, who have allowed the 12th-most fantasy points to quarterbacks this season. Wilson is back to must-start status, but Moore is risky as Seattle has been strong against fantasy wideouts.

    Mike White Will Have Scans On Monday

    New York Jets quarterback Mike White (ribs) will have "scans" on Monday, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. The team is hoping that the signal-caller, who missed the last two games due to fractured ribs, will be cleared to return in Week 17 versus Seattle. But if White isn't ready, Zach Wilson may remain under center. Wilson was seemingly benched during the Thursday night meeting with the Jaguars. However, Rapoport indicated that Wilson wasn't removed from the game, but instead, head coach Robert Saleh opted to stick with Chris Streveler, who remained in the contest "for sort of a Taysom Hill-type package." Nevertheless, there could be a more concrete update on the quarterback situation in the coming days, so fantasy managers should hang on to White for now, especially with a favorable matchup on tap.

    Mike White Ruled Out, Zach Wilson To Start Thursday

    The New York Jets officially ruled quarterback Mike White (ribs) out for Thursday night's game against the Jacksonville Jaguars to kick off Week 16 action. As a result, Zach Wilson will make his second straight start with the team's playoff hopes firmly on the line. In his first start since Week 11, Wilson went 18-for-35 for 317 yards, two touchdowns and one interception in the loss to the Detroit Lions in Week 15. There were some things that he could have done better, but all in all, it was one of the second-year signal-caller's best performances of his young career. He'll have a chance to gain more momentum in a good matchup against the Jaguars defense this week, but fantasy managers should consider him an option only in two-QB leagues. If Wilson looks good again in Week 16, the Jets could have a tough decision to make once White is healed from his rib injuries.

    Mike White Has A Lot Of Hurdles To Clear

    New York Jets head coach Robert Saleh said that quarterback Mike White (ribs) has "a lot of hurdles" to go through with scans this week to see how his injured ribs have healed. If he cannot play in Week 16 on Thursday night against the Jacksonville Jaguars, Saleh confirmed it would be Zach Wilson making his second straight start and not veteran Joe Flacco. White injured his ribs in Week 14 and wasn't cleared by team doctors to play in Week 15. Fantasy managers shouldn't expect the 27-year-old to play on a short week. In his first game action since Week 11, Wilson went 18-for-35 for 317 yards, two touchdowns and an interception in the loss to the Detroit Lions. The 23-year-old looked better, but he'll be a low-end QB2 in fantasy if he starts on Thursday against the Jags.

    Mike White Likely Out Next Two Games

    New York Jets quarterback Mike White (ribs) won't suit up for the Week 15 matchup against the Detroit Lions. The 27-year-old did practice this week, but it sounds like this could be a multiple week absence for him. It is being reported that White is likely to miss Week 15 and the Thursday Night matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 16. It's a shame considering White has done very well since taking over as the team's starting quarterback. Former first round pick Zach Wilson will be asked to take over under center for at least the upcoming game against the Lions. Possibly, Wilson can earn the starting job back if he plays well during these next two games. Fantasy managers shouldn't consider him anything more than a low-end QB2 for fantasy purposes. Hopefully, White is able to recover faster than expected, but it sounds like the team is preparing to start Wilson for the next two games.

    Mike White Won't Play In Week 15

    New York Jets doctors will not clear quarterback Mike White (ribs) for contact before the Week 15 game against the Detroit Lions on Sunday, paving the way for second-year QB Zach Wilson to start. White wanted to play and has practiced this week, but team doctors are not signing off on it. The 27-year-old has thrown for over 300 yards in two of his three starts since the Jets benched Wilson, but he'll have to sit out at least this week while he recovers. Unless Wilson absolutely goes off and looks like a new QB, it's likely the Jets will go back to White when he's cleared. Even though the matchup against Detroit's defense is nice, Wilson should be viewed as a low-end QB2 for fantasy purposes. It remains to be seen if White will get cleared in time for next Thursday's game against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 16.

    Mike White Has No Doubts He'll Play In Week 15

    New York Jets quarterback Mike White (ribs) said there's no doubt in his mind that he will play in Week 15 against the Detroit Lions. White left last week's loss to the Buffalo Bills multiple times after taking shots to his ribs and was even evaluated at the hospital after the game. But he has come out of it fine and has been practicing this week, setting him up to make his third straight start in Week 15 in a positive matchup against the Lions shaky defense. White has gone over 300 yards passing in two of his three starts with three touchdowns and two interceptions, so there is certainly some upside here as a QB2 in superflex leagues. The 27-year-old will be backed up by second-year QB Zach Wilson, who was a healthy scratch the last three weeks.

    Jets Expect Mike White To Play Against Lions

    New York Jets head coach Robert Saleh said that the team still believes that quarterback Mike White (ribs) will play in Week 15 against the Detroit Lions on Sunday. Saleh also said that White will be limited in practice on Wednesday after leaving the game multiple times last Sunday due to hard hits in the loss to the Buffalo Bills. The 27-year-old even went to the hospital after the game to be checked for internal damage, but nothing was found. White had no touchdowns against Buffalo, but he threw for 268 yards. Barring a setback, he should start this weekend in a great matchup against the Lions defense. The recently benched Zach Wilson will be backing White up.

    Mike White Says He's "Ready To Roll"

    New York Jets quarterback Mike White (rib) was forced to leave the game twice in the Week 14 loss to the Buffalo Bills due to a pair of rough hits. He went to the hospital after the game for precautionary exams but was cleared to fly home with the team. White said he feels good, and while head coach Robert Saleh is "hopeful" White can play in Week 15 against the Detroit Lions, the 27-year-old signal-caller said he feels like he's "ready to roll." In his third start of 2022, White went 27-for-44 for 268 yards without a touchdown or interception on Sunday. If White is able to play, he'll have some decent upside as a QB2 against the Lions defense this weekend. If he cannot play, it remains to be seen if the Jets will turn back to second-year QB Zach Wilson or roll with veteran Joe Flacco.

    Mike White Labeled Day-To-Day

    New York Jets quarterback Mike White (ribs) is being called day-to-day after suffering a vicious hit to his midsection in the loss to the Buffalo Bills, but the Jets are preparing for him to play in Week 15 against the Detroit Lions, according to head coach Robert Saleh. White was able to return to the game after missing a short period of time, but he was taken to the hospital after the game as a precaution. It'll be interesting to see if he can play in Week 15, as he would be a top streaming option against the lowly Lions defense. If White can't play, Joe Flacco would likely start for the Jets with Zach Wilson backing him up.

    Mike White Transported To The Hospital

    New York Jets quarterback Mike White (ribs) was transported to a local medical facility as a precaution after Sunday's loss to Buffalo, according to head coach Robert Saleh. The signal-caller took a few hard shots throughout the afternoon and was observed in pain many times during the contest. He would go on to finish this one by throwing for 268 yards and completing just 61.4% of his throws. That said, if White can't suit up in Week 15 against the red-hot Detroit Lions, Joe Flacco would presumably be under center. Yet, there's a chance Zach Wilson (who was inactive in Week 14) reclaims the starting role, although that's unlikely.

    Mike White Returns In Week 14

    New York Jets quarterback Mike White (ribs) has returned to Sunday's game against the Buffalo Bills. He initially went to the locker room and was listed as questionable to return, but it appears that he feels well enough to lead the Jets as they try to mount a fourth-quarter comeback.

    Mike White To Start For Jets In Week 12

    New York Jets quarterback Mike White will start in Week 12 against the Chicago Bears, according to head coach Robert Saleh. The Jets made the announcement on Wednesday that they are benching starter Zach Wilson, beginning this Sunday against Chicago. It remain to be seen if Wilson will get the opportunity to win the starting gig back this year, but for now he'll be the No. 3 signal-caller behind White and veteran Joe Flacco. The 27-year-old White is now a low-end QB2 option for fantasy managers in superflex leagues against the Bears this weekend. White played in four games (three starts) for the Jets last year and threw for 953 yards, five touchdowns and eight interceptions on 132 pass attempts.
