LANDOVER, MD—If the New York Jets were in the NFC East, they might be in the thick of the playoff chase.
Sam Darnold threw a career-best four touchdown passes, while Jamal Adams added a trio of sacks en route to the Jets’ 34-17 victory over the Washington Redskins at FedExField. New York (3-7) finishes their interconference slate with a 3-1 mark.
For the fourth consecutive week, the Jets opened their offensive journey with a score, going 75 yards in seven plays to take the early lead. Tight end Daniel Brown was the lucky recipient, his 20-yard touchdown catch Darnold being his first grab since December 2017.
