The Facts: The Jets would love to have White back with the team. HC Robert Saleh made that clear during his Zoom press conference with the local media last Thursday. White made a radio appearance on Miami’s 560 WQAM Friday morning and told “The Joe Rose Show” he would like to return to the Jets but understands the nature of the business. “The locker room’s fantastic, I talk to those guys every day,” White said. “Things in this league change so fast and situations are so fluid and who knows what’s going to happen. Coach Saleh can say one thing and things can change in a week or so and plans change. I know how the NFL works and I’m never gonna take anything too personal, but I really like the Jets coaching staff. I really like that locker room and I would love to be back.”

Diehards Line: White has spent the last four seasons in the Jets organization, starting out on the practice squad before moving up the depth chart to backup QB and the occasional No. 1. He has started seven games over the last two seasons. After Zach Wilson was benched following an embarrassing loss to the Patriots in November, White became Gang Green’s starting quarterback and started four games. He passed for 1,192 yards, three touchdowns and four interceptions as the Jets went 1-3 during that span. White, who was originally drafted by the Dallas Cowboys in the fifth round of the 2018 draft, suffered a rib injury against the Bills on Dec. 11 and was briefly knocked out of the game before returning after a negative X-ray. But he missed the following two games against the Lions and Jaguars after finding out he had five fractured ribs.
