FLORHAM PARK, N.J. — Talk about a kick in the grass.
The Jets were hoping to take new kicker Kaare Vedvik to MetLife Stadium Friday for him to get used to the turf and swirling winds. But they’re not able to use the field, special teams coordinator Brant Boyer said. The turf has been replaced by grass for Friday’s soccer match between the U.S. Men’s National Team and Mexico.
Boyer said they would try to get some extra kicks in warmups before Sunday’s game against the Bills.The Jets claimed Vedvik off of waivers from the Vikings five days ago.
