Mark Sanchez outperformed Tim Tebow at Jets practice on Wednesday, further cementing himself as the team's main quarterback. Sanchez went 13-20 in team drills, while Tebow was just 2-6 and was sacked three times, according to Rich Cimini of ESPN New York. Sanchez has proven to be the more consistent option under center in New York this offseason, but the two are still likely to be used for different situations.

Analysis: The Jets' offense has looked terrible this preseason, regardless of whether Sanchez or Tebow is under center. Santonio Holmes returned to practice today, which is encouraging for New York, and it might not be a coincidence that Sanchez played well as a result. This passing game is still one fantasy owners will want to avoid until they are able to string together scoring drives with any sort of consistency.
