It’s the NY Jets! Of course it is.
With Aaron Rodgers on the team and the New York circus, why not give Hard Knocks to the Jets.
The NFL officially announced HARD KNOCKS: TRAINING CAMP WITH THE NEW YORK JETS will debut on Tuesday, August 8. The 5-episode run will conclude with the season finale on September 5.
This will mark the 18th edition of Hard Knocks.
“NFL Films has a long and storied relationship with the Jets, from the early days of the AFL and Joe Namath’s “#1″ salute after Super Bowl III, to The Sack Exchange, and the team’s first appearance on Hard Knocks in the midst of back-to-back AFC Championship Game appearances,” said Patrick Kelleher, Executive Producer, NFL Films. “The 2010 Jets changed the profile and the success of Hard Knocks forever. That Jets team made football fun for fans. And now we are excited for a new partnership with this iconic organization and HBO to create another chapter in both NFL and television history filled with great personalities and a roster striving to reach new heights of success.”
The New York Jets were last featured on HARD KNOCKS in 2010, when former head coach Rex Ryan was at the helm. That season, the team advanced to the AFC Championship Game.
