For Jets On Sunday, Trouble Started With The Snap

MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. (CBSNewYork/AP) — Snapping the ball was a challenge Sunday for the New York Jets, and things didn’t get any better after that.

Center Spencer Long reinjured a finger and had half-dozen off-target shotgun hikes, which compounded problems for quarterback Sam Darnold. He threw four interceptions — including a pick-six after he snared a high snap — and the Jets never reached the end zone in a 13-6 loss to the Miami Dolphins.

“We need to be more consistent, myself included especially,” Long said. The injury on the middle finger of his right hand, which he dealt with earlier this season, finally forced him from the game.
