Jets' QB Sam Darnold to Miss Bills Game with Foot Sprain
Sam Darnold is limping into the middle portion of his rookie season.
The New York Jets quarterback has a boot on his right foot and is in street clothes at Wednesday's practice, the team announced. NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reports Darnold is dealing with a foot sprain, which will sideline him for Sunday's game against the Buffalo Bills. Rapoport adds Darnold will be re-evaluated on a week-by-week basis following the team's Week 11 bye.
The No. 3 overall pick took a beating in the Jets' Week 9 loss in Miami and said after the game that he got dinged up.
"Yeah, I feel fine, some bumps and some bruises, but everything is good," Darnold said on Monday, via Manish Mehta of the New York Daily News.
By Wednesday he was in a walking boot.
