There’s no question that Sam Darnold would be thinking hard about life in the NFL after he and his team fell to the Cleveland Browns last Thursday night.
Finishing just 15-of-31 for 169 yards, no touchdowns and two interceptions would have any rookie quarterback headed back to the drawing board.
In Darnold’s case, he believes correcting the ugliness lies in the area of “trusting his gut,” via a Monday conference call as the New York Jets get back to work in preparing for the tough Jacksonville Jaguars.
“Trusting what I see and letting it rip, that’s really the biggest thing,” Darnold said.
