“#Pete Carroll gushes over Jets’ Sam Darnold: ‘Matter of time’<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n

There is a link between Seahawks coach Pete Carroll and Jets quarterback Sam Darnold even though they have never met.<\/p>\n

They have shared history at USC. Carroll coached the Trojans from 2001-09, winning two national championships. Darnold played for the Trojans from 2015-17.<\/p>\n

Carroll gushed about Darnold this week.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think he\u2019s really talented, without question,\u201d said Carroll, who also coached the Jets in 1994. \u201cHe\u2019s got great throws in him. He\u2019s a real quarterback. He sees things. He makes big plays and big throws in difficult situations because of his talent. It\u2019s just a matter of time. Sam\u2019s going to be a really big-time QB. He\u2019s thrown a lot of balls in three years. He\u2019s had a lot of experience. It will pay off in the long run.\u201d<\/p>\n

Darnold grew up watching Carroll\u2019s USC teams as a kid in San Clemente, Calif. But he said the two have never crossed paths.<\/p>\n

\u201cYeah, I was a big fan of those SC teams growing up, it\u2019s been well documented,\u201d Darnold said. \u201cAnd I don\u2019t know him personally, even going to SC and being there, you know he was pretty busy when I was there, so I haven\u2019t met him.\u201d<\/p>\n

Darnold has played two game<\/a>s since returning from his shoulder injury without incident. Darnold was asked this week if his shoulder is 100 percent.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s close enough so, but yeah, it feels good,\u201d Darnold said. \u201cYou know, I\u2019ve taken a couple shots since coming back and it hasn\u2019t really bothered me, so yeah, it\u2019s feeling good.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Jets face a huge challenge, literally, this week in Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf. The 6-foot-4, 229-pound Metcalf has 63 catches for 1,119 yards and nine touchdowns in his second season.<\/p>\n
