It's a 2021 rematch. Kind of.
The Jets and Falcons met in London last season, but the stakes this year are a lower. Atlanta travels to MetLife Stadium on Monday night for a "Monday Night Football" preseason matchup.
The game will feature a number of intriguing rookies. Gang Green wideout Garrett Wilson is showing signs of being a top-tier receiver. While he didn't get the volume of a WR1 last week, Wilson put defenders in blenders and showcased some of the juice that made him a top-10 pick in the 2022 NFL Draft.
