Nick Folk is 31 years old and coming off a quadriceps injury that caused him to miss the second half of last season. At this stage of his career, he recognizes the importance of taking care of his body -- especially his right leg. No one in his profession does it better than Adam Vinatieri, still kicking at 43, and now Folk has the ability to tap into Vinatieri's secrets for longevity.
The New York Jets' new special-teams coordinator is Brant Boyer, who spent the last four seasons with Vinatieri as part of the Indianapolis Colts' staff.
