In one of the early afternoon kickoffs on Sunday, Jan. 1, the New York Jets (4-11) will host their AFC East rival in the Buffalo Bills (7-8). Kickoff from MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford will be at 1:00 p.m. ET. CBS will have the telecast.
Both Buffalo and New York are playing for pride in this one, as both AFC East rivals have been eliminated from playoff contention in the AFC. Buffalo was only eliminated in Week 16, but saw its former head coach Rex Ryan and his twin brother defensive coordinator Rob Ryan fired after the Bills’ most recent loss to the division rival Miami Dolphins.
Sunday will see former Bills running back coach and former offensive coordinator Anthony Lynn serve as the team’s interim head coach with E.J. Manuel as his starting quarterback over Tyrod Taylor. New York just wants the season to end. It remains to be seen what will happen to Jets head coach Todd Bowles at the end of the season. He might be on the hot seat in the Big Apple.
