EAST RUTHERFORD, NJ (AP) -- The New York Jets will hold a minicamp practice that will be open to the public next week at the new Meadowlands Stadium.
The practice begins at 11:30 a.m. next Wednesday. It will mark the first time the Jets take the field as a team in the new $1.6 billion stadium. The Jets will host the first NFL game there Aug. 16, when they play their co-inhabitants, the Giants, in a preseason matchup.
Free tickets for admission to the practice are available through the Jets' website. Fans can also tour the stadium before the session.
The team is also making its first minicamp practice at its training facility in Florham Park next Monday morning open to the public. Tickets will not be required.
