Today was the first day of the New York Jets rookie minicamp. The camp is three days long and will continue on Saturday and Sunday. The media will be at the first two sessions but Sunday there is no media availability.\u00a0Rookie QB Bryce Petty from Baylor spoke about what it is like trying to learn the playbook.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s a process. It\u2019s one you have to take day by day. It\u2019s a mountain that I\u2019m ready to climb and that I\u2019m excited to climb. Being in a spread offense where things might have been a little bit more simplistic in college and then coming here, being able to play quarterback a little bit, not that we didn\u2019t in Baylor, you just get more on your plate here, which is what I love. It\u2019s why you play the position.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Leonard Williams was asked what new head coach Todd Bowles told the team.<\/p>\n
He was just saying, everybody loosen up. He said he could feel the tension in the room. He said, football is football, and at the end of the day we wouldn\u2019t be here if we didn\u2019t know how to play. He was saying just come, be loose, and just play the game of football.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Has Williams met any of his defensive line teammates yet?<\/p>\n
I haven\u2019t spoken with them that much, but (Muhammad) Wilkerson gave me a shout out on Instagram that said, \u201cWelcome to the team.\u201d I commented on that and was saying, \u201cThank you for welcoming me to the team.\u201d That really has been the only interaction. I haven\u2019t really been able to see anyone in person.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
