Sam Darnold knows what it's like to be on the sidelines and out of the action. Not by choice, mind you, but due primarily to an injury to his right foot that gave the third-overall pick in the draft a taste of what it's like to hold a clipboard and watch another do the very…

Christian Hackenberg, we hardly knew ya... The New York Jets traded their 2nd round draft pick of 2016, QB Christian Hackenberg, to the Raiders for a conditional 7th round draft pick. Hackenberg, 23, who was once projected to be groomed into a potential starter, did not play a single down for the Gang Green in…
