CORTLAND, N.Y. (AP) -Mark Sanchez has outplayed Kellen Clemens in the New York Jets’ green-white scrimmage, possibly giving him the slight edge in the team’s closely contested quarterback competition.
Sanchez, the fifth overall draft pick from Southern California, was 9 of 15 – including four dropped passes – for 70 yards Thursday night in the team’s annual full-contact session. Clemens, a fourth-year veteran, was 5 of 7 for 26 yards.
The quarterbacks have been about even in their competition through training camp, but Sanchez’s impressive performance against the first- and second-team defenses might have pushed him in front.
Wide receiver Paul Raymond took a reverse into the end zone from 15 yards out for the only score of the scrimmage.
