Jets to induct Revis, Mangold, Ferguson into Ring of Honor

NEW YORK (AP) — The New York Jets will induct former cornerback Darrelle Revis, center Nick Mangold and left tackle D'Brickashaw Ferguson into the team's Ring of Honor during separate halftime ceremonies this season.

The team announced Thursday that Mangold will be the first honored with a ceremony at MetLife Stadium during the Jets' game against Cincinnati on Sept. 25. Ferguson's induction will be Oct. 30 against New England, and Revis' will be Nov. 27 against Chicago.

The three played most of their NFL careers together with the Jets and are among the most popular players in franchise history. They are also the first players to be inducted into the team's Ring of Honor since Pro Football Hall of Fame center Kevin Mawae in 2017.

Revis spent eight of his 11 NFL seasons with the Jets after being the No. 14 overall pick out of Pittsburgh in 2007. He's considered one of the game's greatest shutdown cornerbacks — with his “Revis Island” nickname a nod to how often he completely locked down opposing wide receivers during his prime.

Revis played for the Jets from 2007-2012 and again from 2015-16 with one-year stints in Tampa Bay and New England in between. He ended his career after a season with Kansas City in 2017. He made three straight AP All-Pro teams from 2009-11 with New York and was selected to five Pro Bowls with the Jets. Revis' 25 interceptions with New York rank third on the franchise's career list.

Mangold and Ferguson came to the Jets together in 2006 when both were first-round picks — Ferguson going fourth overall out of Virginia and Mangold 29th out of Ohio State. Both also played their entire careers with the franchise.

Mangold was one of the NFL's best centers during his career, with his seven Pro Bowl
