We're inching closer and closer to Football season! But before our local teams start learning new plays, they should probably learn how to pronounce the name of towns nearby.

New York Jets Players Struggle with Pronouncing NY Town Names

Many NFL teams are heading out for pre-season camp to get ready for the 2024 season. Before, they hit the gridiron, the New York Jets hit the Instagram grid with a new video on how well they know their surroundings.

Jets players Tyrod Taylor, John Simpson, Isaiah Oliver, Braelon Allen and Qwan'tez Stiggers all sat down to attempt to give local New Jersey and New York town names a try.

The following towns were given to the players to pronounce:

Hopatcong
Manalapan
Parsippany
Ronkonkoma
Poughkeepsie

Personally, I think these are pretty easy, what do you think? Much like last season, the Jets struggled through the town names. Watch below as the butcher the tri-state area in under a minute:

Okay, okay. I'll stop making fun of the Jets because the Giants aren't much better. Actually they're worse, but hey at least we've won a Super Bowl or 2 in the last 20 years.
