| Giants, Jets Will Play In The Preseason Opener On August 16th | | | The Giants and Jets will share the stage when the NFL debuts at the new Meadowlands stadium in August, and this time they didn’t even need a super-secret coin flip to figure that out. The NFL announced today that the first NFL game the teams’ $1.7 billion palace will be the annual preseason game between the Jets and the Giants and it will be held on Monday night, Aug. 16 and televised on ESPN. The Giants and Jets normally play each other in Week 3 of the preseason, but it made sense for the league to push up the 42nd straight meeting between the two intra-city rivals and make it the opener.
