New York Jets quarterback Sam Darnold was awful in one category in 2019

Error 0:

There’s no question the New York Jets are fully invested in quarterback Sam Darnold, and GM Joe Douglas backed that sentiment up with a free-agency and draft period tailored around protecting him.

However, Darnold has been shaky over this first two seasons in the NFL, seeing only minimal improvements in 2019. His numbers don’t scream franchise-caliber, but a lot of his deficiencies can be attributed to poor offensive line play and a lack of weapons. The Jets took those two excuses away, signing guard Greg Van Roten, tackle George Fant, and center Connor McGovern.
