The Jets returned to MetLife Stadium for the first time since last December on Saturday night, hosting their annual Green and White scrimmage.
Last year’s Green and White scrimmage, which featured New York’s backups soundly defeating its starters, took place at One Jets Drive amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Saturday night’s scrimmage marked Robert Saleh’s first taste of the action and the first time that Jets fans flocked to East Rutherford to watch their team play since December 2019.
“It was awesome, just to be able to go through this thing and go through the stadium and just go through as game-like of an experience as we can create for the players so next Saturday [New York’s preseason opener] is normal,” Saleh said. “It was cool.”
Here are six takeaways from the scrimmage and Gang Green’s return to MetLife.
