New York Jets quarterback Josh McCown has been "the best quarterback" in camp and "shows no signs of losing the grip on his job," reports SNY's Ralph Vacchiano.
This comes a day after ESPN's Adam Schefter reported that 3rd overall pick Sam Darnold "has a very fair shot" to be the Week 1 starter. Preseason performance will play a large role but even if McCown is under center for the opener, Darnold will likely make starts as a rookie. Teddy Bridgewater could also factor in with a strong preseason showing.
McCown is the 31st quarterback in numberFire's preseason fantasy rankings. We expect him to total 3,205.0 passing yards with 17.09 touchdowns and 11.5 interceptions in 2018.
