2020 Vision and Lots of Additions

Darnold is once again optimistic about the Jets’ chances in 2020. He saw Douglas add a lot of talent at various positions of need across the roster and sees the Jets being competitive this season. But was it enough?

“We definitely have the guys to be able to win football games,” he said. “It’s about putting everything together.”

One area that saw a huge upgrade was the offensive line, which will likely see new starters at center and both tackle spots with Connor McGovern, George Fant and Becton joining the team.

“They’re good players,” Darnold said about his new protection. “They’re guys of high character. The more guys we can bring in like that, the better.”

The Jets also recently added veteran running back Frank Gore to the backfield. Although his best playing days are behind him, Gore offers a lot of experience and mentorship for the Jets’ younger players.

“He’s a guy with great work ethic and a really good leader, a really good locker room guy,” Darnold said about Gore. “And obviously it looks like he can still play.”
