Sam Darnold and the New York Jets endured yet another dismal outing in the NFL last year. Head Coach Adam Gase was sacked as the New York-based franchise finished at the bottom of the AFC East with a 2-14 record.
Quarterback Sam Darnold could not help the Jets improve on their 2019 record, despite decent individual displays over the course of the season.
