Sam Darnold’s NFL career hasn’t even started yet, and if we’re to believe what we’re hearing from multiple media outlets, it would appear his representatives have already failed the third overall pick in the draft.
Darnold “wants to be in camp” according to Mike Garafolo of the NFL network, but his agent, Jimmy Sexton, is advising Darnold to fall farther behind the other quarterbacks in camp by sitting at home while Sexton bolsters his resume in an attempt to get Darnold a better deal than that of first overall pick Baker Mayfield and Josh Allen who was chosen with the seventh pick by the Buffalo Bills.
