Adam Gase announced on Monday that Sam Darnold will be out against the Chargers in Week 11. Joe Flacco will start in Darnold’s place again.
Gase added that it was a “consensus” decision not to start Darnold this week, including doctors in and out of the building, per ESPN’s Rich Cimini.
The Jets have not yet discussed placing Darnold on injured reserve, but neither Gase nor Darnold seemed overly optimistic about the quarterback’s chances of returning in Week 12.
Darnold said based on what he was told by the doctors, that it was still the right decision to play against the Chiefs in Week 8.
As for the remaining injuries, Mekhi Becton who left Week 9’s loss with a chest injury, appears “good to go” for Sunday’s game. So, the rookie left tackle will play against the Chargers.
The hope for Quinnen Williams (hamstring) is that he will be limited in practice this week after missing New York’s previous game against the Patriots
