Sam Darnold and Josh McCown emerge as captains in Jets' hair force

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- Josh McCown and Sam Darnold are taking this teacher-pupil thing to a new level.

On Friday night, the TV cameras caught the two quarterbacks on the bench, side by side. As they listened to offensive coordinator Jeremy Bates, McCown and Darnold executed a perfectly synchronized (and awesome) hair flip. Naturally, the video went viral.

On Sunday, they had some fun when asked about the double flip.

"For preseason (week) three, I think we were firing on cylinders," McCown said, tongue in cheek.
