JACKSONVILLE - The Jets don’t want Sam Darnold to be part of a feeding frenzy in northeast Florida. The Jaguars have one of the toughest defenses in the NFL, and certainly the best Darnold will see to this point in his young career.
Jets offensive tackle Kelvin Beachum called the Jaguars' defensive front deep, productive and disruptive, and said the offensive line has to make sure that Darnold doesn’t get swallowed alive by that Calais Campbell-led unit Sunday inside TIAA Bank Stadium.
“They do a phenomenal job of getting after the quarterback,” Beachum said. “They do a phenomenal job of stopping the run and being disruptive, having tackles for losses and pining offenses back and keeping them to third-and-long and finding a way to eat.
