Jets to play Cowboys on Thanksgiving

Admin - March 26, 2007

The NFL announced today that the New York Jets will travel to Dallas on the Thanksgiving Day to take on the Cowboys in the annual Thanksgiving Classics.

It will be a matchup of running back brothers – 28-year-old RB Thomas Jones, recently acquired by the Jets in a trade, against his sibling, 25-year-old RB Julius Jones of the Cowboys. This will be the second meeting of their professional careers – Julius (150 yards, two touchdowns) got the better of Thomas’ Bears on Thanksgiving Day in 2004 in a 21-7 Cowboys’ victory.

In other news, the Gang Green signed DE Andre Wadsworth, a former #3 overall draft pick who hasn't played since 2000 due to numerous injuries. Wadsworth is considered one of the biggest NFL Draft busts in the last 10 years.
