Mike Maccagnan, in an interview with New York radio station WFAN, said Sam Darnold is "exceptionally impressed" with the rookie quarterback.

The New York Jets also have Teddy Bridgewater and Josh McCown on the roster, fueling speculation that Bridgewater could be traded. Maccagnan did nothing to squash the rumors.

"There's nothing to stop us from keeping three [quarterbacks], and there's nothing to stop us from keeping two," said Maccagnan, basically confirming there's a "for sale" sign on Bridgewater.

Bridgewater, who has impressed in two preseason games, is only 25 with a $5 million base salary, plus incentives.
