New York Jets visit Fort Hamilton Army Base
NFL stars coach Army Game in Bay Ridge
Three members of the New York Jets spent an entire day at Fort Hamilton Army Base in Bay Ridge. They came to spend time with troops and coach a football game between two teams of army soldiers.
Jets quarterback Josh McCown, linebacker Demario Davis and wide receiver Chad Hansen coached a friendly flag football match on Tuesday at the Fort Hamilton Athletic Field. The Jets donated customized green and white team jerseys and official footballs for what they dubbed “Fort Hamilton’s Turkey Bowl.”
The Jets stars offered valuable pointers before they were split up into two teams. McCown’s team sported white Jets jerseys, while Davis’s team wore green Jets jerseys. Both had the word “army” on the back.
