The New York Jets are donating $25,000 to help cover the Wyandanch High School football team’s expenses this year, Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone's office said Monday, two days after the football team officially began practicing.

Former Jets player Tony Richardson will appear alongside Bellone and Wyandanch school officials at a news conference on the Wyandanch football field Tuesday afternoon to discuss the donation as the school attempts to raise $350,000 to operate all sports.
