Thursday night’s game, set for 8:15 p.m. eastern at MetLife Stadium, is the last in an 11-day swing in which the Jets opened the season on Monday Night football at San Francisco.

Then, New York returned home for a short week of practice to prepare for a road trip to Tennessee on Sunday.

Following that run, the Jets came back home for an even shorter week of preparation for their home opener.

After Thursday’s game, the Jets (1-1) will get 10 days off before their next game.

Meanwhile, this contest is notable for another reason. It marks the first game between New York and New England (1-1) that won’t include Bill Belichick in some capacity since the 1995 season. Back on Dec. 10, 1995, Belichick was head coach of the Cleveland Browns.

After he was dumped that offseason, he joined the Patriots’ staff under then-head coach Bill Parcells. The next season he followed Parcells to the Jets. Then in 2000 he was New York’s head coach for about five minutes before bolting for New England.

The Patriots and Belichick parted ways after last season and Jerod Mayo is now the head coach.
