Klecko — presented by his blood brother Marty Lyons, who helped unveil his bronze bust on stage — began his storied Jets career in 1977, one year after a hobbled Broadway Joe left the franchise to become Hollywood Joe for one last, unfulfilling season with the Rams. Fortunately for Namath, he didn’t have to play against Klecko.“I wish I could play today, not so much for the competition,” Klecko said, “but for the money.
Revis — presented by his mother, Diana Askew — helped get the 2009 and 2010 Jets 60 minutes from the Super Bowl before losing to the Peyton Manning Colts and Ben Roethlisberger Steelers, respectively. He captured his Super Bowl ring with Bill Belichick and Tom Brady.
