FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- The New York Jets were hoping to take new kicker Kaare Vedvik to MetLife Stadium on Friday to get acclimated ahead of Sunday's opener, but they got booted from their own stadium by a soccer match.
The USA hosts Mexico in a soccer friendly on Friday night, so the uprights are down and the artificial turf has been replaced by grass.
"We'll have to adjust on the fly," special-teams coordinator Brant Boyer said Thursday.
The Jets have been doing a lot of that.
After failing to re-sign Pro Bowl kicker Jason Myers, who left in free agency, they signed journeyman Chandler Catanzaro.
