In what could have been Sam Darnold’s final salvo as Jets quarterback, he turned in a performance befitting of Sam Darnold.
Yes, he showed occasional promise – with a touchdown pass and a pair of superb touchdown drives. But, in typical Darnold fashion, he also sowed doubt – with two second half interceptions and a handful of bad throws in Sunday’s 28-14 season-ending loss to the Patriots in Foxborough.
