Sam Darnold and Adam Gase spent some time Monday night chatting on FaceTime. The Jets can only hope it is the first of many fruitful conversations.
Gase was tapped Wednesday to be the franchise’s new head coach and to develop Darnold, the 21-year-old the Jets hope is their quarterback for a long time.
Gase’s background working with quarterbacks appealed to the Jets.
“Gase is unbelievable with quarterbacks,” one NFL source said.
The Jets better hope so.
Gase’s track record is a mixed bag statistically.
