The inevitable is now a reality. The New York Jets are now Sam Darnold's team.

Darnold will become the youngest quarterback to start an opener since the 1970 league merger, and the second youngest quarterback to start a game, regardless of the week since Tommy Maddox started a game for the Denver Broncos in 1992 at 21 years old.
