Whatever New York Jets‘ quarterback Sam Darnold was seeing on Monday night, it didn’t exactly assist him in his performance. The second-year pro completed just 11 of 32 passes for 86 yards, zero touchdowns, and four interceptions.
In the midst of the 33-0 defeat at the hands of the Patriots, Darnold was mic’d up by ESPN and indeed mentioned he was “seeing ghosts.” It’s something that became a headline when discussing the team’s fifth loss of the year. Afterward, Jets head coach Adam Gase expressed how unhappy he was that ESPN decided to air those comments.
