Four months ago, the Jets were focused on the Giants.
It was draft night and the Giants were on the clock. The Jets had just watched the Browns take Baker Mayfield with the No. 1 pick and now they were wondering what their crosstown rivals would do.
The Jets’ draft room had the team’s representatives at the draft in Dallas on speaker phone. Those reps were watching the Giants’ table, waiting to see if they picked up the phone, which would signal a trade.
Soon, the Giants turned their pick in and the Jets began to celebrate.
