As if there weren't enough reasons for New York Jets fans to still have an affinity for former quarterback Sam Darnold, he goes out and gives them another one.
Darnold, preparing for his first Super Bowl appearance as quarterback of the Seattle Seahawks, was on The Dan Patrick Show discussing his path through the NFL, including his start in New York.
A lot of other former Jets would've taken the opportunity to slight their old team, but not Darnold. He understands that the journey that led him to Seattle was necessary, and he's a better player thanks to his struggles along the way.
