Friday night was a big one for two former faces of the New York Jets: Sam Darnold and Geno Smith.
First, we’ll cover the bad news. Darnold suffered an injury during the Carolina Panthers’ preseason finale against the Buffalo Bills. It was later revealed to be a high-ankle sprain. His timetable for a return has yet to be revealed, and he will have an MRI today.
Sam Darnold was taken off the field on a cart after suffering a nasty-looking injury on this play.
