The New York Jets recently held  their “Taste of the NFL” even that featured many players, celebrities and fans ready to enjoy some amazing food. In an exclusive interview, The Jet Press sits down with Breno Giacomini and Tommy Bohanon.

What a great night for some delicious food, cocktails and spending time with the Jets.  While enjoying the festivities at the Gala, I got to chat it up with fullback Tommy Bohanon and offensive lineman Breno Giacomini.  They are both looking forward to this year’s version of the New York Jets.

HG: First let me say, on Thursday night a couple weeks back, Tommy, you appeared in a skit on Inside Amy on Comedy Central. It was so funny, where you and some other NFL-ers were watching fans in a twist on Fantasy Football.  How was it to turn the tables around on fans that can get a little out of control?

TB: Sometime you just need to laugh.  Stop taking things so serious and enjoy the moment.  It was fun doing, for sure.

HG: What have you guys done during the offseason, besides make us laugh?

BG: I started my workout earlier this offseason because I wanted to do better. The team is working on getting faster and stronger, and I’m trying to get there, too.

TB: Just working and keeping focus on next season.

HG: Thoughts on the 2016 NFL Draft?

BG: I thought we drafted a good group of guys, they are all good.  If you look at the team from last year, we needed to get younger, stronger and faster, and I think we have, especially with a guy like Darron Lee.  It’s always good to get fresh blood.

TB: Well, I have not seen any tapes or watched any college games during the past season because, well, I am worried about my own game.  But from what we all have heard, we got some good talent and look forward to working with them on the field.

HG: As a biased party, I can help you with that Tommy, all you need to know is that the Buckeyes are your favorite team, so naturally you are pumped about the first-round draft pick of the Jets!

TB: Hahahaha. From Ohio, I see.

HG: Any word on the Ryan Fitzpatrick? Is he coming back? 

BG: I think Mrs. Fitzpatrick may be the only one beside him, that knows that.

HG: Last month, D’Brickashaw Ferguson retired from the Jets.  How will that change the dynamic and who will step up in his place?

TB: We already signed Ryan Clady who knows the game and is a Pro Bowler himself. He is already filling that gap for us.  We are gonna miss Brick for sure, though.  He was a great leader.

BG: Brick was a good mentor for the younger guys and was all there for them. He was a great example for all the players and he was a role model to me, personally.
