A flashback to the last time the Jets announced a new uniform
Longtime Jets center Nick Mangold likes the new uniforms but is partial to an alternate jersey he helped unveil.
Slightly different vibe to a @nyjets uniform unveiling tonight. Love the new unis but I think these were straight fire 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥#NYTitans #TBT pic.twitter.com/SUAgVcWLgO

Former Green Bay running back Ryan Grant is in the news after his appearance in the Bleacher Report story about Aaron Rodgers and Mike McCarthy.
If one more person tweets me or DMs me asking if I like Aaron , I am literally going to become the other Ryan Grant. Aaron is my homie , he knows he is my homie . It’s hugs all day. I’m mad at myself that this even has to be explained lol. All the rhetoric is just a distraction.

Former Green Bay fullback John Kuhn disputes some of the claims about Rodgers and McCarthy.
Never knew my coach to get a massage instead of attending meetings and my QB never threw me under the bus. #justsaying

AAF players are free to sign with NFL teams
Though perhaps this should never have been in doubt, as former Raiders CEO Amy Trask points out.
Dear @TheAAF – very “gracious” of you to state the obvious as unless you honor their contracts you can’t rightfully prohibit them from so doing – sincerely, went to law school – you’re welcome. https://t.co/D0rJDVUkV8
