Former USC quarterback Sam Darnold notched his first career start and his first career win with the New York Jets Monday night against the Detroit Lions.
If there is one thing Sam Darnold is perfect at, it is having a short term memory. For a rookie quarterback the ability to bounce back and put an errant throw or sack behind them is imperative to their success for the rest of the game.
Darnold’s very first pass attempt as the starting quarterback for the New York Jets was a pick-six.
