Can Panthers' Sam Darnold, Robby Anderson recreate chemistry found with Jets

CHARLOTTE, N.C. – The Carolina Panthers were in the final quarter of a Week 3 road win against the Houston Texans when ESPN’s Mike Clay tweeted, “[Sam] Darnold won’t throw to Robby Anderson because he reminds him of the Jets.’’

It was a funny line that others piled onto.

It’s not so funny anymore -- at least not to Anderson and the 3-2 Panthers.

A big reason Anderson signed a two-year, $29 million extension in August was because of the chemistry he and Darnold had in New York for two years (2018-19).
