Let’s face it, after a forgetful preseason, the Detroit Lions and their fans are ready for the regular season to begin.
In Week 1, the Lions will square off against the New York Jets on Monday Night Football. According to Adam Schefter, the Jets have named rookie Sam Darnold as their starting quarterback to begin the 2018 season.

With Sam Darnold starting next Monday on Monday Night Football at Detroit, he will become the youngest ever opening-day starting NFL QB and he will extend the streak of having at least one rookie QB start on opening weekend to 11 straight seasons.
