FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — On a day when Bill Belichick’s future was seemingly hanging in balance, another recent New England Patriots trend reversed.
For the first time in their last 16 meetings, the New York Jets beat the Patriots.
The Jets outlasted New England, 17-3, as the league’s lowest-scoring team hosted the fourth-lowest scoring team in a game even further hampered by a steady sheet of snow.
The last time the Jets beat the Patriots was Dec. 27, 2015.
"It feels good," Jets head coach Robert Saleh said.
