The New York Jets and New York Giants enjoyed their home field from a different view on Sunday.

Jets players Quinnen Williams, Breece Hall, Alijah Vera-Tucker, C.J. Mosley and Solomon Thomas attended the 2024 Navy Federal Credit Union NHL Stadium Series at MetLife Stadium.

Giants players Saquon Barkley, Sterling Shepard and Tommy Devito also joined the Jets on stage to welcome New York Rangers and New York Islanders fans to “their house” and kick off the player introductions.

The Jets posted a video before they took the field.

Barkley was impressed with the atmosphere of the hockey game, comparing it to his Penn State days at Beaver Stadium. He told ESPN’s Kevin Weekes he was “disappointed” in himself for not attending more hockey games.

The Giants running back wrote on social media that “Hockey games are really lit!!”

It looks like the Jets and Giants would welcome the Rangers and Islanders back to their home anytime.
