Report: Jets owner wants McElroy under center
Greg McElroy - QB - New York Jets
Dec. 4, 2012 - 11:50 AM ET
According to the Daily News, Jets owner Woody Johnson "prefers" Greg McElroy to be the starting quarterback.
McElroy guided the Jets to a win in a relief role last week, so Johnson appears smitten. The report also says that GM Mike Tannenbaum and OC Tony Sparano prefer Mark Sanchez. None of these heavy hitters want Tim Tebow under center. Ultimately, the final decision will be in the hands of head coach Rex Ryan, who has shown silly amounts of loyalty to Sanchez over the last 2.75 seasons. We're expecting a decision here by Wednesday.
