The symbolism was appropriate. On a beautiful moonlit North Jersey evening, before a crowd of diehard fans that included about 60 Green & White Legends from seasons past, the 2017 edition of the Jets took the MetLife Stadium field for the annual Green & White Practice.
And while it was mostly a practice, with the last half of the two-hour session a scrimmage-like 11-on-11, there were a few plays that got the assembled Jets faithful cheering — a few sacks to warm the heart of Joe Klecko, one of the Ring of Honor Legends in attendance, and several big wideout plays to fire up Wesley Walker, the other ROH member watching from the sidelines.
