White was limited in practice Wednesday as the Jets continue to prepare as if he will start in Week 15 and after the team elevated Zach Wilson to QB2 on Wednesday. Getting on the practice field Wednesday was certainly a positive sign. How he feels Thursday and Friday will be telling, but the arrow is pointing up for White making his fourth start this season.
