Good times. I was running this event for former Redskins WR Gary Clark, who was talking about a summer camp he was having. Anyway, one of the players that was there with him was former NYJ Cornerback John Booty. I know he was not a great player, but it was cool to meet him. He was really kind and a cool guy. Good times! http://johnfitzgeraldbooty.com/stats.php
Yeah, he said this 2010 Jets team is the most talented he has ever seen in New York. He also said he played for a few teams, but considers himself a Jet because they drafted him. He is going to be a DB coach for Gary Clark's camp.
And here I thought you meant :wink: I don't remember this guy as a player when did he play? It looks from the pic that its early 80s
NYJ Cornerback from 88-90. He played with some other teams afterwards. He was nothing special at all.
He was opposite James Hasty... I don't know how old you are but guys my age would remember him. He wasn't terrible but I'd say average.
I think I remember him but thats 20 years ago and a lot of drinking and smoking in between for a JAG. edit Older then you by 4 years BTW.
He was drafted in the DB heavy Jets draft of 1988 along with Hasty, Eric McMillan (who earned all-pro rookie honors but kind of piltered out after that) and there was another corner they drafted that year who was a total bust, forgot his name. Booty was a decent back-up, his best game came against the Steelers that year when he blocked a punt which led to a TD and made another big play also, a fumble recovery or something like that. That was a big game, the first ever Jets win against the Steelers. I'm also pretty sure he was the first Jet to wear # 42 after Bruce Harper......
Everybody is saying that the Jets are the team to watch in 2010. BTW, glad that you got to meet John!
