The Jets, starting at their 20-yard line, saw recently signed RB <a class=\"nfl-o-cta--link nfl-o-cta--underline\" style=\"word-break:break-word\" href=\"https:\/\/www.newyorkjets.com\/team\/players-roster\/dominic-richardson\/\" title=\"Dominic Richardson\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Dominic Richardson<\/a> pick up a first down. But the drive stalled after an incomplete pass when Klubnik was flushed out of the pocket, a short gain, a 5-yard penalty for delay of game and another incompletion on third-and-14.<\/p>\n<p>Trailing by 10-6 with 2:07 left in the first half, Klubnik&#8217;s final effort of the night started seconds before the 2-minute warning. Klubnik&#8217;s first-down pass went for 14 yards to WR <a class=\"nfl-o-cta--link nfl-o-cta--underline\" style=\"word-break:break-word\" href=\"https:\/\/www.newyorkjets.com\/team\/players-roster\/cam-camper\/\" title=\"Cam Camper\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Cam Camper<\/a>.

Another completion to Camper for 12 yards got the Jets to the Giants&#8217; 32. But the drive was halted when Klubnik was sacked on third-and-13, knocking the Jets out of field-goal range.<\/p>\n<p>In the half, Klubnik completed 6-of-13 passes for 59 yards and an interception.<\/p>\n<p>During the third quarter, GM Darren Mougey put on the headphones and chatted with the CBS-TV announcing crew.<\/p>\n<p>Asked for his assessment of Klubnik, Friday night and overall, Mougey said: &#8220;Cade&#8217;s had a good camp. We&#8217;ve seen growth through OTAs, through training camp. He&#8217;s got some moxie. He&#8217;s got poise. He&#8217;s played a lot of college football, but there&#8217;s nothing like NFL reps. It doesn&#8217;t matter if you&#8217;re the number one overall pick, seventh pick, any position coming to the NFL there&#8217;s a lot to learn, especially at quarterback.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"An 81-yard punt by the Giants&#8217; Jordan Stout barely touched the goal line, but was a touchback nonetheless.&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":332399,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[83101,85,9,11,10,12],"class_list":["post-332398","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-new-york","tag-cade-klubnik","tag-latest-headlines","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-headlines","tag-new-york-news","tag-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/332398","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=332398"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/332398\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/332399"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=332398"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=332398"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=332398"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
