FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- After months of intense speculation and polarizing debate among fans and pundits, the New York Jets have arrived at The Decision -- Part I, anyway. General manager Joe Douglas has decided to move on from quarterback Sam Darnold, who was traded Monday to the Carolina Panthers only three seasons into his pro career. This was a difficult, multilayered decision, one that sparked debate within the organization. In the end, it feels like a mistake, a blown opportunity to cash in a winning lottery ticket. The trade means the Jets are prepared to take a quarterback with the No. ...

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- A look at what's happening around the New York Jets: 1. Darnold vs. Wilson? Former Jets quarterback Josh McCown couldn't help but laugh at how the narrative surrounding Sam Darnold has changed. Noting the fickle nature of the NFL, McCown told ESPN this week, "Three years ago, it was 'Suck for Sam.' Now it's, ' Sucked for Sam.'" The past three seasons have stunk for everybody connected with the Jets, and that's one of the reasons Darnold could be replaced by a rookie, presumably BYU's Zach Wilson. McCown, who became a mentor to Darnold in 2018 and has remained close with ...

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- A look at what's happening around the New York Jets: 1. Days numbered?Sam Darnold's chances of returning in 2021 seemed to improve with the hiring of coach Robert Saleh, who spoke of the quarterback in glowing terms (privately to friends as well). Now, 46 days before the 2021 NFL draft, those chances appear to be fading. General manager Joe Douglas all but posted a "For Sale" sign when he recently admitted he is open to fielding trade inquiries. Since then, nothing has changed with regard to Darnold. The Jets are listening. This month, Douglas will be a fixture on the QB...

However the Jets proceed, it should have some level of impact on the Patriots. For example, might Darnold's availability potentially pique the San Francisco 49ers' interest, thus making Jimmy Garoppolo an option for a return to New England? Or, in turn, the Jets sticking with Darnold could create action for the No. 2 pick from other QB-needy teams, altering the draft board and who is ultimately available to the Patriots (No. 15). These are the scenarios coach Bill Belichick and his staff have likely already begun dissecting. One longtime NFL executive opined to ESPN's Jets reporter Rich Cimin...

The Jets have received multiple inquiries from teams interested in trading for Darnold, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported Sunday. Darnold and Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz are generating the most buzz (next to the Houston Texans' Deshaun Watson, of course), an indication Darnold still is held in high regard around the league despite a career-worst season in 2020. Talent evaluators, trusting their eyes over spreadsheets in this particular case, see what he can be, not what he is. That he was the third overall pick by the Jets in 2018, ahead of stars such as the Buffalo Bills' Josh A...
