EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- The New York Jets honored the late Nick Mangold with an on-field tribute before the team's game against the Cleveland Browns on Sunday.

Mangold's wife, Jennifer, and their four children, Matthew, Eloise, Thomas and Charlotte, wore green and white No. 74 jerseys as they were honored during the pregame coin toss at midfield at MetLife Stadium.

Mangold, a two-time All-Pro center who helped lead the Jets to the AFC Championship Game twice in his 11 seasons with New York, died on Oct. 27 from complications of kidney disease. He was 41.
