NFL journeyman Tim Boyle will have another chance to show whether he is the right man for the New York Jets starting quarterback job down the stretch. 

Despite a shaky performance in the Black Friday game, Boyle is slated to retain the starter title for the Jets upcoming game against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 13.

Rodgers suffered an Achilles injury in the first game of the season, and he has not been medically cleared to play. However, the four-time NFL MVP has repeatedly suggested that he could suit up again this season.
