Sam Darnold has a new favorite after receiver’s bust-out
Jermaine KearseSam Darnold lost his security blanket, but he may have found a different one. With favorite target Quincy Enunwa sidelined with a right ankle injury, the rookie quarterback discovered Jermaine Kearse.
After four nondescript games, the veteran wide receiver made his presence felt, catching nine passes on 10 targets for 94 yards in the Jets’ 42-34 win over the Colts at MetLife Stadium on Sunday afternoon.
“I’m always mentally ready for opportunities and try to make the most of them,” Kearse said. “That’s how I’ve been my whole career. That’s kind of how I had to be being undrafted. I’m never out of the game. That’s each game — every game.”
