Rookie Jets quarterback Brady Cook tossed his first touchdown Sunday against the Jaguars in his first start. At a first-and-goal on Jacksonville’s 9-yard line, Cook found wide receiver Adonai Mitchell in the end zone to put the Jets on the board, 14-7. He was 6-for-6 for 51 yards.
Cook's celebration was understated. He knocked helmets and slapped hands with his teammates. In fact, Cook may have been too chill about the whole thing. Despite throwing his first NFL touchdown pass, Cook ran off the field without securing the football.

At the least, Cook will have more of a fighting chance than the last undrafted rookie QB the Jets trotted out to start. That was exactly one day shy of 50 years ago Sunday — Dec. 15, 1975. The QB in question was J.J. Jones, 23 years old, a rookie out of Fisk University who, when he made the team, became the franchise’s first Black quarterback.
