Football in New York (NFL)

Learn how football works in a city where neither team actually plays "in" New York — the Giants and Jets both call MetLife Stadium in New Jersey home. This course covers both franchises, their shared stadium, how the NFL season is structured, and everything you need to book a game confidently during your visit.
