FLORHAM PARK. N.J. — The Jets returned to practice Saturday after spending much of the past two days having intense and emotional conversations about racial and social issues and trying to find ways to enact change.
The players are still in the process of deciding what they will do as a team and an organization after those meetings that were prompted by Jacob Blake, a 29-year-old Black man, being shot in the back by police officers in Kenosha, Wisconsin.
The Jets shared personal experiences, talked about policy and legislature, the importance of voting, registering to vote and getting to know the candidates.
