Coming off of a big team win for the Jets this past Sunday, quarterback Sam Darnold has also earned some individual accolades for his efforts as he was named the AFC offensive player of the week.
After missing several games due to a bout of mono, Darnold came back against the Dallas Cowboys and threw for 338 yards while going 22-32 passing. One of his two touchdown passes was also a highlight reel toss as he hit receiver Robby Anderson on a 92 yard scoring strike in the second quarter.
