LeBron James shouts out Sam Darnold’s wild touchdown run
Sam Darnold’s insane touchdown run caught the attention of one of the NBA’s best.
After seeing Darnold’s 46-yard touchdown run against the Broncos, LeBron James gave the Jets quarterback major props on Twitter.
Helluva run by Darnold! The juke move once he got out the pocket was a RB elite move

Darnold’s touchdown run had a little bit of everything. He evaded a sack and put a nasty juke on Denver’s Justin Simmons en route to the endzone. It gave the Jets their first lead of the season.
The Los Angeles Lakers have an off day from the NBA Finals after winning Game 1 against the Heat on Wednesday night. So James has some time to watch Jets football while in the NBA bubble. He liked what he saw when Darnold took off.
