Payton's disparaging comments earlier this year about Hackett and the Jets gives the team another incentive to win Sunday at Denver.
FLORHAM PARK, N.J. — Nathaniel Hackett didn’t show his face in public for the first time as the new offensive coordinator until Aaron Rodgers’ introductory news conference in April, three months after . By then, he was sporting a goatee, a new look for him. He’d refer to it as his “disguise” to anyone who asked. Advertisement What was he hiding from? Well, Hackett was hired by the Jets on Jan. 26, exactly one month after he was before the end of a disastrous first season as head coach.
Payton’s comments were “tough, obviously,” quarterback said. “But our focus is getting this win this week and going out and playing as well as we can. You just ignore those things, but it is tough at the same time. … He is a tough dude that focuses on where his focus needs to be. His focus is on helping this offense do the best we can. He doesn’t let that kind of stuff faze him at all.” Most of the Jets, clearly, are trying to move forward, but it’s hard not to think about the past.
