No, ladies and gents; you’re not watching “virtual practice.” What you are about to see is very real.
Young Sam Darnold delivers a tremendous ball to rookie wide receiver Denzel Mims at New York Jets camp, per the team’s official Twitter account.
Sure, it’s only a 13-second clip, but does the NFL-loving world have a choice in the matter? They’ll take whatever they can get at the moment.
Darnold, 24, is ready to enter the third year of his young professional career. After an ankle injury in 2018 and a bout with mono early last season, the USC product attempts to play a full season for the first time (during the most uncertain football season of our lives).
