Takeaways' from Jets' joint practice with Giants as tensions rise
Gang Green and Big Blue have very different practice styles and their two days of knocking helmets was bound to find a gray area. Take flight with the Jets Text with Brian Costello all season as he brings Sports+ subscribers the latest Jets intel from on the field and off. SIGN UP NOW That happened Wednesday, and that's where to begin our Jets takeaways from Day 2 against the Giants. 1. Jamien Sherwood knocked Wan'Dale Robinson to the ground and that was the first hint that, despite the agreed-upon thud-tempo rules, there might be more physicality in this practice than is usually seen with the Giants. Sure enough, a small fight broke out later when Will McDonald hit Tyrone Tracy Jr. to the ground. Greg Van Roten, a former Jet, and rookie Marcus Mbow took exception after the whistle, and it looked like Mbow punched McDonald while he was on the ground.

How Malachi Corley is trying to work his way back into the Jets' plans after a rookie season dud
Take flight with the Jets Text with Brian Costello all season as he brings Sports+ subscribers the latest Jets intel from on the field and off. SIGN UP NOW Malachi Corley's NFL career began with a nod to Hollywood, but it has hardly gone according to script. Before the second day of the 2024 NFL Draft, Jets coach Robert Saleh texted general manager Joe Douglas a picture of Corley and the phrase, 'No matter what.' It was a nod to the movie 'Draft Day.' Advertisement The Jets landed Corley out of Western Kentucky in the third round, but things quickly turned sour in his rookie year. By the time they got to Week 1, the Jets coaches did not trust Corley, and he played just 83 offensive snaps over nine games. He was inactive despite being healthy five times. He finished the year with three catches for 16 yards and two rushes for 26 yards. His most memorable moment was a mistake, dropping the ball just shy of scoring his first touchdown against the Texans.
