CORTLAND, N.Y. (AP) -New York Gov. David Paterson, a longtime Jets fan, has stopped by the team’s training camp practice and talked briefly with coach Rex Ryan and the players.
Paterson stood on the sideline during the Jets’ special teams practice Friday at SUNY Cortland, and then broke the team huddle to end the afternoon session. He says he has been a fan of the team since the franchise was known as the Titans in the early 1960s.
He says he thinks the Jets will be a playoff team this season and will win at least 10 or 11 games.
Paterson says he urged the team to not have any close losses at the end of games because he has had “a lot of other issues this year.” He also says he understands both sides regarding cornerback Darrelle Revis’ holdout.
