New York Jets Flight Connections 3/24/21

Good morning, GGN! I hope you’re all having a great start to the day. Corey Davis unexpectedly made headlines after saying that he joined the Jets under the pretense that he expects Sam Darnold to remain the starter of the New York Jets. Given the rumors circulating all offseason regarding what the team will do at the quarterback position, this naturally became a big story; but does it change anything? It seems that if Joe Douglas intended on trading Darnold that it would have happened prior, or at the start of free agency. As time increases, Darnold’s value decreases, as teams start to fill their rosters and answer their own questions at quarterback. The further we go without Darnold being moved, the closer we are to a reality that he will be the starter, unless JD is fine with accepting much less compensation for the young QB. At this rate, don’t be surprised if the team selects a non-QB (or moves back) when the NFL Draft finally happens. With that, here are your links to the team to start your day.
