The New York Jets have made it clear that they did not want to be chosen for “Hard Knocks,” and it sounds like they may now try to make life a bit difficult for HBO.
ESPN’s Adam Schefter said on “Get Up” Monday that the Jets will not allow NFL Films and HBO to film certain pivotal moments during training camp. Most notably, the team has decided cameras will not be present when head coach Robert Saleh and general manager Joe Douglas inform players they are being cut.
“Hard Knocks will not be the same. They’re not going to be given the same access,” Schefter said, via Michael McCarthy of Front Office Sports. “The Jets don’t believe it’s humane to show players being released.”
Schefter speculated that this year’s edition of “Hard Knocks” could be the highest-rated in the history of the show but also have the “least access.”
Some of the most dramatic moments that have been featured on “Hard Knocks” over the years are when players are cut. We even saw one scene where a player was let go for disciplinary reasons. There may not be any of that this summer.
