Sam Darnold subtraction could outweigh Jets' offensive additions

Just as the Jets are closing in on getting back some key players on offense, they may be without their most important piece.

Running back Le’Veon Bell and rookie wide receiver Denzel Mims are eligible to come off injured reserve this week. Deep threat Breshad Perriman also may return from an ankle injury that sidelined him for two games.

But if they’re able to play Sunday against the Cardinals, it might be Joe Flacco running the offense instead of Sam Darnold.
