One of the biggest questions hanging over the -- if not biggest -- this offseason is what they are going to do at quarterback. As things stand currently, they

They could either take a prospect with the No. 2 overall pick at the 2021 draft, try to find the answer somewhere on the open market, or keep the train moving with . Most point to New York going with the first option and simply hitting the reset button at the position, selecting a player (Justin Fields?) with the second pick and moving on from Darnold.The third-year pro did say earlier this season, however, that he and hoped to remain the starter heading into 2021 while also acknowledging his uncertain future with New York in line for a high pick. When asked about Darnold's standing within the organization heading into the offseason, GM Joe Douglas was predictably noncommittal and seemingly suggested that a final decision won't come until a new head coach is hired."Look, we've got a lot of decisions to make. I think Sam's going to be a great

"I had a great conversation with Sam yesterday. I won't go into the specifics, but I think Sam has a very bright future in this league. We're going to get a head coach in here, we'

Over the course of his three-year tenure in New York, Darnold is 13-25 as a starter. As Douglas noted, however, that poor record isn't exclusively on him as the roster around him has hit a number of speed bumps. "I think Sam faced a lot of obstacles this year, as did everybody, dealing obviously with COVID and frankly, we had quite a few injuries -- on the offensive line, at the wide receiver position," the Jets GM explained. "I think it was hard for our offense in general to really build the kind of sustained chemistry to create succe s throughout the

I think all of those things impacted not only Sam, but our offense."I do think you saw in the month of December, Sam played a lot of good

By the way Douglas is talking, there does seem to be a chance that they continue down the path with Darnold and move elsewhere with the No. 2 pick.
