Jets Rookie QB Sam Darnold Won't Be Hazed by Teammates, Says Buster Skrine

New York Jets cornerback Buster Skrine said the team doesn't have any plans to haze rookie quarterback Sam Darnold after he was selected with the third overall pick in the 2018 NFL draft.

"Nah, hazing's not legal. It's not legal in the NFL anymore," he told TMZ Sports on Wednesday.

Skrine said the USC product's teammates might make him sing during training camp or use another type of "basic" joke, but nothing too serious.

The 29-year-old Georgia native also praised Darnold's performance during the early stages of offseason work.
