FLORHAM PARK, N.J. - (AP) -- Here comes Sam-ta Claus!
New York Jets rookie quarterback Sam Darnold traded in his football pads and green and white jersey for some extra padding, a fake beard and a red white Santa outfit recently to surprise some unsuspecting kids at a New Jersey mall.
In a video posted by Bleacher Report on Wednesday night, Chris Simms and Adam Lefkoe, hosts of the "Simms & Lefkoe Show" hit the Livingston Mall -- about 3½ miles from the Jets' training facility -- with a decked-out Darnold.
Darnold set up shop as Santa with Simms and Lefkoe dressed up as elves at a picture-taking area and put kids on his lap to hear their Christmas wishes.
