The deed is done. Sam Darnold is now one of the Carolina Panthers’ quarterbacks, which officially reunites him with wide receiver Robby Anderson.
Joe Douglas and the New York Jets sent the USC product to the Panthers Monday afternoon for a surprisingly good haul. In return comes a 2021 sixth-round pick, 2022 second-round selection and 2022 fourth-rounder, per NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport.
Obviously, this news points to one avenue: a certain BYU quarterback.
The entire football world would be shocked if the Jets don’t select Zach Wilson second overall in the 2021 NFL draft.
