Mononucleosis derailed the sophomore season for quarterback Sam Darnold and the entire New York Jets offense. The former first round pick from USC was limited to just 13 contests, and we do not know for sure how long the illness affected him in the games he did manage to play.
Despite missing Weeks 2 through 5, Darnold did improve on his completion percentage from his rookie season, threw two more touchdowns, and two fewer interceptions, leading the team to wins in six of their final eight games.
The Jets used significant draft capital to address deficiencies on the offensive line while adding a big-bodied wide receiver on the outside in rookie Denzel Mims from Baylor. The team also added free agent WR Breshad Perriman to help fill the vacuum left with the departure of Robby Anderson to the Panthers in free agency.
For fantasy purposes, Darnold projects to be no more than a streaming option in standard one-quarterback leagues, as the position is deep, and Darnold has yet to top 20 passing touchdowns in his career. He will have value in Super Flex leagues, but a rough schedule to start the season of games against the Bills and the 49ers should give owners pause on drafting Darnold this year.

Sam Darnold not expected to play, Flacco to start Shoulder injury By: Mike Krueger | Sat Nov 7, 1:47 pm

| | NEWS: Sam Darnold not expected to start Monday night, per Gase. No practice today. Listed as doubtful. #Jets (Rich Cimini on Twitter)
FFToday's Take: The dumpster fire season for the Jets continues. Joe Flacco should get the start which means a downgrade to all the Jets pass catchers. Fire up the Patriots defense in Week 9.
