NY Jets' Kyle Wilson Promotes Anti-Obesity Message to Students

New York Jets cornerback Kyle Wilson was a special guest at Ridgedale Middle School in Florham Park Tuesday morning.

Wilson visited sixth-grade students from Florham Park, Madison and Harding as part of the National Football League and American Heart Association’s Play 60 program, which encourages youth to be physically active at least one hour each day. 

In an effort to fight obesity in children and teen, students are expected to write their physical activity every day in a “playbook.” Those who fill out their playbooks completely over four weeks get an autographed certificate from Wilson and a chance to accompany the Jets onto the field when they play the Miami Dolphins on Dec. 1. 

The Play 60 challenge will also be offered at Summit and Chatham middle schools.
