Sam Darnold to start for New York Jets against Detroit Lions

in #steemit • 6 years ago

Sam Darnold will make history by starting at quarterback in the New York Jets' season-opening game against the Detroit Lions next Monday.

The 21-year-old, who was drafted third overall this year, will be the youngest quarterback to start in week one of the season since the NFL and AFL merged in 1970.

The Jets' head coach Todd Bowles confirmed the news on Monday, after the rookie impressed in their second and third pre-season matches.

But Darnold sat out of their final pre-season game at the Philadelphia Eagles in order to keep him injury-free ahead of their trip to Detroit, live on Sky Sports Action.
