The prosperity of the New York Jets’ first lead didn’t last long.
Quarterback Sam Darnold went out with an injury after a sack. The other team’s inexperienced QB, Brett Rypien of the Denver Broncos, showed he has a strong arm.
After a roughing the passer penalty, Rypien connected with top draft pick Jerry Jeudy of Alabama on a 48-yard scoring play.
JERRY JEUDY.
