Twenty years later, Pennington and Becht might still be responsible for big gridiron scores.
Cole Pennington and Rocco Becht, the respective sons of former New York Jets stars Chad and Anthony, were among the many athletes who committed to a new college on National Signing Day. Cole is following in his father’s footsteps as a quarterback at Marshall University while Rocco is headed to Iowa State, also as a passer.
Pennington and Becht are best known for manning the Jets’ offensive endeavors at the turn of the century, each coming to New York as first-round picks in the 2000 draft.
