With a new season set to begin, here are five Jets to watch when training camp starts Thursday:
QB Sam Darnold
It is Year 2 for the franchise quarterback, and all eyes will be on him through camp and the preseason for signs of improvement. New coach Adam Gase is here because of his background with quarterbacks. The ownership believes Gase can bring the best out of Darnold. It will start in training camp with Darnold learning the offense and working out the kinks before the regular season. Unlike last year, Darnold enters camp as the top quarterback, and he should get all of the first-team reps in practice.
