Six more weeks until the end of the 2020 season. Six more losses until the New York Jets match NFL history. Six more contests for Sam Darnold to prove his worth.
The oft-injured quarterback is set to make his return to the lineup this Sunday when the Miami Dolphins come to town, and just in the nick of time, too, as Trevor Lawrence watches from afar.
Conventional wisdom leads many to assume the party is over. No matter the percentage of blame that’s attributed to the organization, the coaching staff, or the man himself, Darnold has never looked worse while playing out his third professional season.
