08/11 — The Jets’ Family Night Practice at Hofstra University on Long Island on Wednesday evening will be starting 15 minutes earlier than originally scheduled.

The practice will begin at Hofstra’s James M. Shuart Stadium at 5:45 p.m. on Wednesday. The gates will open at 4 p.m.

"I’m looking forward to going down to Hofstra and being around a lot of our fan base," Jets head coach Rex Ryan said today. "It’s right before a game, we’re going to be in shorts, there’s not going to be a whole lot of contact, but it will still be a practice. We’re going to take a lot of time to sign autographs and really get out there with our fan base."

Generation Jets Fest and the Jets Shop tent will both be open from 4-7 p.m. at the stadium.

"You guys just made my decision for me. I dont think I will go since it is just a practice in shorts and the weather is a negative..."

" I've been going to Jets camps since 1969. Now they've been stolen from us. Moving their operations to Florham Park was insult enough. But Cortland?? Woody doesn't seem to realize that Long Island is where the Jets fan base is. This is one fan they've lost. GO DOLPHINS!! C-H-A-D chad chad chad"
