Jets upstart quarterback Mike White nearly led the Jets to a comeback victory, but an interception with 10 seconds left by Vikings safety Camryn Bynum ended the Jets’ upset hopes and gave the Vikings a 27-22 victory.

The Jets fell to 7-5 on the season, hurting their playoff chances. The Vikings improved to 10-2.

The Jets had several chances to win the game late in the fourth quarter, but came up short.

The final chance came when the Vikings punted and the Jets took over at the Minnesota 43 with 1:19 to play. White hit Garrett Wilson for a 18-yard pass that put them at the 19, but the drive stalled there. White threw three straight incompletions and then was picked off at the goal line by Bynum to end the threat.

White completed 31 of 57 passes for 369 yards and two interceptions in the loss, while rookie wideout Garrett Wilson had a career day with eight catches for 162 yards. Another Jets rookie, running back Zonovan Knight, showed out as well, rushing for 90 yards on 15 carries.

When Graham Gano’s desperation 58-yard field-goal attempt fell far short, the Giants walked off the field at MetLife Stadium with a bizarre and unfulfilling 20-20 tie with the Commanders. 

The Giants once trailed 10-0 in the first quarter and took a 20-13 lead on Daniel Jones’ 6-yard touchdown pass to Isaiah Hodgins with 11:34 remaining in the third quarter. The Giants could not manage to find another point the rest of the way and that ineffectiveness — and at times ineptitude — on offense is what cost them a chance to enhance their playoff aspirations.

The Giants (7-4-1) halted their losing streak at two games and made sure the Commanders (7-5-1) stayed in last place in the NFC East. So there’s that.

Jones completed 25 of 31 passes for 200 yards and was the Giants’ leading rusher with 71 yards. Saquon Barkley scored a rushing touchdown in the second quarter but could not get untracked, rushing 18 times for 63 yards.

All Elite Wrestling (AEW) announced its working relationship with the Owen Hart Foundation to honor the legacy of late wrestler Owen Hart.

The partnership will include an annual ‘Owen Hart Cup Tournament’ within AEW, with the winner receiving a Cup known as ‘The Owen,’ as well as the production and distribution of original merchandise honoring Hart.

“AEW’s relationship with the Hart family dates back to our inaugural pay-per-view event, Double or Nothing in 2019, and Owen’s influence is still felt today,” said Tony Khan, AEW CEO.

“The Owen Hart Foundation is extremely pleased to partner with AEW in this wonderful joint venture to honor Owen’s substantial international wrestling career and the lasting influence he and his craft has had in the sport,” said Dr. Martha Hart, the widow of the late legendary wrestler.

“AEW’s Owen Hart Cup Tournament serves as a tremendous tribute to Owen and provides an incredible way for professional wrestling enthusiasts to celebrate his work in a most fitting way.”

The Owen Hart Foundation was launched in 2000 in memory of the Canadian wrestler, who died in 1999 at the age of 34.

Mike White got the hero’s treatment as he walked from the Jets’ locker room to the player’s parking lot after Sunday’s 31-10 win over the Bears. 

White had just thrown for 315 yards and three touchdowns in his first start this season in place of Zach Wilson. White made the Jets’ offense look fun and functional and threw the ball to a whopping 10 different teammates. 

“He made the easy look easy,” coach Robert Saleh said. That is something Zach Wilson, the would-be franchise quarterback, has struggled with all season. 

White finished 22 of 28 for 315 yards and three touchdowns. 

The Jets gained a season-high 466 total yards, a week after gaining only 103 against the Patriots. Yes, it was against a terrible Bears team that was missing two starters in the secondary entering the game and lost another in the second quarter. But the Jets aren’t apologizing for that. 

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge and St. Louis Cardinals first baseman Paul Goldschmidt have won the American League and National League Most Valuable Player awards, respectively, both taking home their league’s top honor for the first time in each of their historic careers.

Judge — who had previously finished second in AL MVP voting in 2017 and fourth in 2021 — led the American League in two of the three Triple Crown categories, setting an AL single-season record of 62 home runs, while also hitting a league-best 131 RBIs.

Judge received 28 of 30 first-place votes for a total score of 410 voting points, defeating 2021 AL MVP Shohei Ohtani of the Los Angeles Angels — who received two first-place votes and 280 points — and Houston Astros slugger Yordan Alvarez, who had 232 points.

Goldschmidt won 22 of 30 first-place votes for 380 points. San Diego Padres shortstop Manny Machado received seven first-place votes for 291 points and fellow St. Louis Cardinals star Nolan Arenado received one first-place vote and earned 232 points.

The first baseman hit for a .317 average, 35 home runs and 115 RBIs, having previously finished in the top 3 for MVP voting three times during his previous stint with the Arizona Diamondbacks, as well as sixth in 2021.

The Jets will honor three cornerstones of their team from the late 2000s and early 2010s this season. 

The team announced Thursday that it would induct former cornerback Darrelle Revis, center Nick Mangold and left tackle D’Brickashaw Ferguson into its Ring of Honor during three separate halftime ceremonies this year. 

Mangold will be the first to be honored, getting inducted at halftime of the Sept. 25 game against the Bengals at MetLife Stadium. Ferguson will be inducted during the Oct. 30 game against the Patriots. Revis will be inducted on Nov. 27 when the Jets face the Bears. 

The trio were extremely popular players and key members of the teams that went to back-to-back AFC Championship games in 2009 and 2010. They will be the first players inducted into the Ring of Honor by the Jets since 2017 when Hall of Fame center Kevin Mawae was honored. 

Golfing champion Tiger Woods became overwhelmed with emotion while accepting his place in the World Golf Hall of Fame.

The 46-year-old golfing legend was introduced by his 14-year-old daughter, Sam, before he delivered emotional remarks that didn’t bring up any of his 82 PGA Tour victories or multiple surgeries he had to endure. Woods instead talked about the second mortgage his parents, took out so he could play in the junior circuit in his home state of California.

He held back tears describing the lessons his late father, Earl Woods, instilled in him, including that he would have to work for and earn anything he wanted. 

“If you don’t go out there and put in work, you don’t go out and put in the effort, one, you’re not going to get the results,” Woods said. “But two, and more importantly, you don’t deserve it. You need to earn it. So that defined my upbringing. That defined my career.” 

The New England Patriots moved to 6-4 on Sunday with a 10-3 win over the rival New York Jets. Mac Jones and Co. again swept the season series against the Jets as the Patriots have now won 14 straight against their AFC East rivals. Rookie Marcus Jones was the hero for New England, as he returned a punt 84 yards for the game-winning touchdown with just five seconds remaining. 

Jones’ score was the first go-ahead punt return touchdown in regulation since DeSean Jackson scored one for the Philadelphia Eagles against the New York Giants in Week 15 back in 2010. It was also the first punt return touchdown of the 2022 season. 

As the final score indicates, this was not exactly an offensive shootout that featured several big plays. Zach Wilson completed just 9-of-22 passes for 77 yards, while Jones completed 23-of-27 passes for 246 yards. Both defenses played incredibly well all afternoon, and combined for 10 total sacks.

With this win, the Jets fall from second place in the division to last, while the Patriots move up to third. All four teams in the AFC East now have at least six wins, and the race to the regular-season finish line is going to be incredible to watch.
