Good morning Gang Green Nation! Derrick Gaffney died on Monday. If you became a Jets fan after the mid 1980s you might say to yourself Derrick who? Gaffney isn’t the most famous Jet of all time, to say the least. But for those of us who remember cheering for the New York Sack Exchange Jets, Gaffney was a glue guy. He was Wesley Walker’s running mate at wide receiver. Walker was the star. Gaffney was a poor man’s Wayne Chrebet. He was never the biggest, the fastest or the strongest, but he was reliable, he was an excellent route runner, he had great hands, and he was absolutely fearless. A no fuss kinda guy, Gaffney just showed up every week and played his butt off. Rest in peace Derrick Gaffney. Thanks for the memories.
