Meet Mallory White, the wife of Jets’ new quarterback folk hero

Mike White had a successful first NFL start on Sunday, and now Jets fans want to know more about the backup quarterback.

White replaced injured rookie Zach Wilson (knee) and passed for 405 yards and three touchdowns in a 34-31 upset over the Bengals in Week 8.

After his successful passing performance, White took his wife Mallory out to dinner, according to The Post’s Brian Costello.

Mallory is a former autism teacher-turned-business-owner. She runs a custom sugar cookie design company, Mallory Makes, in Tampa, Fla.

White and his wife made their relationship Instagram official in July 2015, while they both attended University of South Florida — where he was a two-year starter for the Bulls and she was a cheerleader.

In 2015, White transferred to Western Kentucky University, but the couple’s relationship survived long distance.

In January 2018, White proposed with a diamond ring that was placed in a dish of rose petals. Three months later, the WKU starter was selected by the Cowboys in the fifth round (171st overall) of the 2018 NFL Draft.

The college sweethearts tied the knot in April 2019 at Innisbrook Country Club and Resort in Tampa, where they spend a lot of time together when White is not in-season.

White and Mallory welcomed fraternal twins in September named Millie and Maddox.
