Sauce Gardner Sends 3-Word Message on Jets Prime Time Schedule
Whether you like it or not, the New York Jets are going to be heavily featured in prime time.Gang Green has six of them in total on the initial 2024 schedule with a pair of Thursday Night Football games, a pair of Monday Night Football games, and a pair of Sunday Night Football games.Sauce Gardner was asked about the massive national spotlight on his team during a sit-down interview with Jets reporter Caroline Hendershot.“We always ready,” Gardner told Hendershot. “We always going to be ourselves, we are always going to have the same identity, we are not going to change anything just because it’s prime time. It’s great to be able to have those prime-time games. A lot of people are expecting a lot out of us, we expect a lot out of ourselves. It’s prime time everybody is going to be watching so we love to have those types of games. I love to have those types of games. It’s going to be competitive and I’m a competitor.”
It sounds like #Jets CB @iamSauceGardner wants ALL THE SMOKE in 2024 with 6 prime time games on the schedule.

Sauce immediately said the Houston Texans.He called them an “elite team” and someone who is loaded on both sides of the ball.

They took full advantage of that by scheduling the Jets twice with the Week 3 home opener versus the New England Patriots and hosting the Texans on Halloween night in Week 9.
