Jets QB Sam Darnold Optimistic About Future: 'My Best Days Are Ahead'

With the regular season wrapping up, the Jets face many decisions about their future this offseason, including the fate of starting quarterback Sam Darnold.

The 23-year-old could play in his final Jets game on Sunday, but he hopes he can stay with the organization and continue developing as a quarterback.

"I absolutely believe my best days are ahead," Darnold said, per ESPN.

After being drafted No. 3 overall in 2018, Darnold has struggled in his first two seasons and gone 13–24 as a starter. This year, he's completed 58.8% of his passes for 1,942 yards with eight touchdowns and nine interceptions.
