Sanchez was unofficially 10 of 14 with a touchdown while working with the second team Wednesday. That could be his role again against the Giants if Smith does indeed get the start.
Ryan has played the quarterback situation close to the vest all summer, and it appears he'll continue to do so this week. The reality is this: Sanchez has had up-and-down moments during his two preseason appearances, but hasn't done enough to pull away from Smith.
FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) — Rex Ryan and the New York Jets aren't ready to select a starting quarterback for their preseason game against the Giants.
Mark Sanchez has an idea who it might be — and it's not him.
"It wasn't brutal, that's for sure," Ryan said with a smile. "That was a great day. I don't know if that was his best day because he's had a lot of good ones, but he had a great one today."
"So,China Jerseys, I've been doing better with it."
That came exactly a week after Smith threw four interceptions, including three in 11-on-11 team drills, prompting Ryan to say it was a "brutal" performance by the second-round draft pick.

Most teams play their starters into the third quarter of the third preseason game, but Ryan insists the Jets aren't required to stick to any perceived deadline. It would seem logical if the two quarterbacks are even in the competition that the Jets would want to see Smith in at least one more game of extended action before picking a season starter. The team also wants to make sure Smith is completely healthy before announcing that he'll go Saturday night.
"You know eventually we have to name one," Ryan said,Wholesale Hockey Jerseys, "so we'll see."

Sanchez and rookie Geno Smith are in a tightly contested competition for the opportunity to start the regular season under center. Sanchez has started the first two preseason games, including last Saturday when Smith was hobbled by a sprained ankle. So, it seems logical to him that it'll be Smith's turn to go this weekend.
Smith, meanwhile, has just two quarters of preseason game action after spraining his right ankle in the opener at Detroit. That's kept him from being thoroughly evaluated,Cheap NHL Jerseys Authentic, and holding up the team's ultimate decision on who'll be the quarterback during Week 1 against Tampa Bay Sept. 8.
"It's getting better," Smith said of his ankle. "I wouldn't say it's 100 percent. I just got to continue to treat it every single day. Every day, it has felt better than the previous day. I just got to continue to treat it and just get better."
Smith has worked with the first-team offense for three straight days, mainly because Sanchez did the same last week while Smith was slowed by the injury. Both quarterbacks had solid practices Wednesday, but Smith was outstanding in team drills while completing 15 of 16 passes, including two touchdowns.
Smith also wasn't sure if it was his top performance of training camp, but he certainly feels a lot better physically than he did at this time last week.
"I'm assuming," Sanchez said Wednesday when asked if he expected Smith to start. "I don't know. They haven't said."
NOTES: Ryan insisted he was "staying with a 'head injury'" when asked about RB-WR Joe McKnight, who told the AP on Tuesday he suffered a concussion during training camp. The team has never officially called it a concussion. McKnight was cleared to practice on a day he struggled to make it on the field while dealing with migraines, prompting some to question whether he should have been told to sit out. "I'll stand by our doctors and our trainers and not look for a witch hunt,Kyrie Irving Shoes Clearance," Ryan said. ... A day after saying he thought his defense would finish in the top 5 in the league, Ryan backtracked a bit. "I think I'm wrong by saying that," he said. "I shouldn't say that because I am out of the prediction business, but I know where I believe everything is going to end up." ... CB Antonio Cromartie angered some of his teammates on offense when he hit WR Stephen Hill hard with a forearm near the helmet. Cromartie fired back at some of those yelling at them: "Don't cry! Play ball!" Hill, who later returned to practice, said he and Cromartie were OK with each other, but Ryan wasn't happy. "I think, there's 'thud,' and then there's like 'over-the-top-thud,Alexander Alexeyev Jersey,'" Ryan said,Wholesale China Jerseys, "and I was disappointed because we have to protect each other."
"Well, last week I would say (the
