NFL Preseason: Jets @ Giants
Jets @ Giants @ MetLife
Giants & Jets MetLife Schedule
There is so much talent on our field this fall! The Jets new QB, Aaron Rodgers (who will hopefully play more than 4 minutes this season), four-time MVP, is headlining the action and we are all hopeful he brings it to "Gang Green." On the Giants side, superstar Daniel Jones, "Danny Dimes," is was setting records just about every game and whether it’s Jones or DeVito, we look forward to celebrating the Giants 100th season! There’s nothing like a traditional American football game, so head on out to MetLife Stadium, where tickets start at just $40 per game!
