An unnamed Jets assistant coach told ESPN’s Adam Schefter that Christian Hackenberg “couldn’t hit the ocean.”
On top of that, unnamed team officials added that Hackenberg “regressed” this year.
Hopefully the Jets get to the bottom of who said this stuff, and those individuals are terminated.
This has nothing to do with Hackenberg’s talent. I have no idea whether he’s regressed this season. I haven’t seen him play since the summer.
This has to do with institutional control and football culture.
Winning organizations don’t employ punks who throw their players under the bus, trying to be big shots with NFL insiders.
