FLORHAM PARK, N.J. — Sam Darnold has shown he can get rid of the ball quickly. The next thing the Jets rookie quarterback must master: Getting in and out of the huddle swiftly.
Darnold has improved in that area as he’s gotten more comfortable with the offense. Offensive coordinator Jeremy Bates said Darnold did a good job of that in last Sunday's win and it contributed to the Jets ringing up 512 yards of offense against the Broncos, the most under Todd Bowles.
“The tempo as far as the huddle, in and out, was extremely good,” Bates said Thursday.
