Two rookie defensive dynamos looking to make Jets contender

The omnipresent specter of Tom Brady somehow still hovers over the Atlantic Health Jets Training Center.

Until there is visual evidence of Brady requiring the use of a cane, or until Gisele convinces him to retire, Sam Darnold won’t be able to topple Brady by his lonesome in the never-ending “Game of Thrones” drama that has tormented the Jets and their fans since Quinnen Williams was 4 years old.

“It’s crazy, because Tom Brady started playing in the NFL before I was born,” Williams said, and laughter filled the Jets press room.

Brady was a sophomore at Michigan when the Jets’ first-round draft choice was born, but it sure seems like an eternity to the Jets as well.
