It may be falling victim to “prisoner of the moment” here, but it sure seems like the New York Jets are seeing immediate dividends off of their investment back in late April.
Our latest example is from the ‘Green and White Scrimmage’ at Rutgers University. This is the annual matchup that pits Jets vs other Jets in a game like atmosphere. The team got to practice situational football in a variety of ways.
Although it’s not just Sam Darnold that is doing well for the Jets, it’s the entire draft class. When you look at the recent drafts for the green and white, it’s hard to find a year where they had multiple successes, it just hasn’t happened within the last decade.
