With the final game yet to be played at Giants Stadium looming, the Jets organization has announced that they will be honoring players from the 1984-2009 teams at halftime of Sunday's game. Each individual season (sans 2006) will be represented by at least one Jets player.
The halftime ceremony will be held in commemeration of the last 26 years of Jets football that has been played in "Big Brother's" house.
