Sam Darnold hung on to Jets dream even as it was ‘driving him insane’
NY Post
Sam Darnold always believed it would work out with the Jets. Right up until the team traded him to the Panthers last week, Darnold thought he could turn things around with the Jets.
“Before the trade happened, I always thought I could make it work in New York,” Darnold said Monday on a Zoom call with reporters. “Just being honest, I really did. My goals never changed even though there was speculation about me getting traded. I always believed that I could make it work and that we were going to get pieces and just be able to win some games in New York and go to the playoffs and eventually win the Super Bowl.” The Jets gave up on Darnold with the deal that sent the 23-year-old quarterback to Carolina in exchange for a sixth-round pick this year and a second-round pick and fourth-round pick in 2022.More Related News
