This is what you don’t see away from the field.
Premiering Aug. 21 exclusively on Prime Video, “The Home Team” follows six current and ex-Jets players and their partners — including Quinnen and Maranda Williams, Alijah and Jessie Vera-Tucker, Allen Lazard and Camila Escribens, Tyler and Scottie Conklin, Chuck and Aysha Clark, and C.J. Mosley and Jamie Reiff — throughout the 2024-25 regular season in the nation’s no. 1 media market.
The six-part docuseries pulls back the curtain on the emotional journey players and their families’ experience in their personal lives over the course of a 17-game NFL season.
From pregnancies to parenthood, “The Home Team” begins with the season opener on “Monday Night Football” against San Francisco 49ers — a 32-19 road setback — and follows the Jets’ injury issues and midseason slide.
The series culminates with the season finale at home against Miami and the major changes that loomed after a 5-12 campaign that saw coach Robert Saleh and general manager Joe Douglas fired midseason.
Conklin cashed in a $250,000 bonus in that Week 18 game and later becomes a dad, Mosley is released, Clark welcomes twins and Lazard quietly prepares for fatherhood.
On the field, Vera-Tucker enters the offseason healthy, while Williams begins his recovery with next season in mind.
The Jets began last season with high aspirations but missed the playoffs with veteran quarterback Aaron Rodgers.
He returned after tearing his achilles in the 2023 season opener, and played in 17 games, recording 3,897 passing yards, 28 touchdowns and 11 interceptions.
The Jets released Rodgers this offseason and signed Justin Fields to a two-year deal in March worth $40 million, including $30 million guaranteed.
Rodgers, meanwhile, signed in June a one-year, $13.6 million contract with the Steelers that includes $10 million guaranteed.
The Jets and Fields host Rodgers and the Steelers in Week 1.
Presented by Prime Video Sports and Skydance Sports, in association with NFL Films, “The Home Team: NY Jets” is produced by VaynerWATT.
