ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. – Sam Darnold was back and led the Jets to their first victory in nearly two months.
The Jets snapped a six-game losing streak as they came from behind to beat the Bills, 27-23, Sunday at New Era Field. Second-year running back Elijah McGuire scored the game-winning touchdown on a 1-yard run with 1:17 left.
With the score 23-20, embattled coach Todd Bowles could have gone for the chip-shot game-tying field goal, but he decided to go for the much-needed win. On fourth-and-goal from the 1, McGuire took the Darnold handoff and rumbled off the right side into the end zone.
