Jets Trade Sam Darnold to Panthers for Three Draft Picks

The Panthers have acquired Jets quarterback Sam Darnold in a trade that will send three future draft picks to New York, the teams announced on Monday.

Carolina will give up a sixth-round pick in the 2021 NFL Draft along with a second- and fourth-round pick in 2022, pending a physical.

Darnold went 13-25 as a starter in three seasons with the Jets and threw for 8,097 yards and 45 touchdowns with a 78.6 passer rating. The Jets drafted the 23-year-old with the third-overall pick in the 2018 NFL Draft. The team has been listening to offers for Darnold throughout the offseason.
