How did Sam Darnold look in the Jets’ first mini-camp practice?
Average.
He threw a telegraphed interception to Jamal Adams, and most of his completions were on check down passes.
But you know what, who cares?
The spring isn’t about style points, it’s about learning, and Darnold has to digest an entirely new playbook, which is far from ideal for a QB going from his first to second year.
So yes, Darnold didn’t look great today.
But it’s irrelevant.
The only thing that matters is how he looks when the regular season starts.
This time of year is for getting the kinks out.
