Adam Gase feels he’s let Sam Darnold down.

Gase was hired in January 2019 to help develop Darnold into a franchise quarterback. By all measures, Darnold has regressed and could be with a new team next season.

"I came here to help him, help him develop his career and we haven’t been able to do that," a very candid Gase said Thursday.
