The Jets last week made the move many were anticipating for quite some time.
The organization ultimately sent quarterback Sam Darnold to the Panthers for three draft picks, one of which will be in this year’s sixth round. It comes in the wake of the very likely drafting of BYU quarterback Zach Wilson at No. 2 overall later this month.
Darnold now possesses a chance to restart his career after three not-so-easy years in Florham Park.
How exactly is the young quarterback feeling about the news?
“There’s a little bit of both — relief and excitement,” Darnold told Darin Gantt of the Panthers official website.
