Robert Saleh did not hide his lack of desire to have his Jets selected for HBO’s Hard Knocks this year, but now that Gang Green is indeed the team that will be featured this season, the head coach is warming up to it.
So much so, that he showed up to his first press conference of Jets training camp wearing an “I love HK” shirt.
“Embrace it,” Saleh smiled, after a reporter asked about the shirt.
“Just talking with Hard Knocks, we've got a great group of people that are working with us, and we've expressed some of our concerns, and they've answered it. It's gonna be fine.”
The Jets preferred to not have the distraction, but now, there has been a pivot in perspective, as Saleh noted the team already has its “One Jets Drive” show, the team’s own behind-the-scenes program.
