Things didn’t end well for running back Ty Montgomery in Green Bay last season.

He’s hoping for a new beginning with the Jets this season Mike Daniels Color Rush Jersey , the beginning of what he hopes is a long relationship.“I’m trying not to get ahead of myself, but I’m excited for what lies ahead,” Montgomery said, via Ethan Greenberg of the team website. “I love being on this team. I love the guys on the team. We have a lot of fun every day, talking a lot of noise. Real, real competitive atmosphere, so it’s a lot of fun.”Montgomery fumbled on a kickoff return he took out of the end zone late in the fourth quarter against the Rams, costing the Packers a chance for a comeback. It was Montgomery’s final game with the Packers, who traded him to the Ravens.But he had only 25 touches for 148 yards in six games in Baltimore.Montgomery signed with the Jets in free agency and is getting a fresh start in Adam Gase’s offense.“You have to be smart,” Montgomery said. “You have to be able to catch the ball, and you have to be able to run the ball. You can’t have an imbalance and be at running back in this offense. It’s actually pretty cool; it’s challenging. I think it suits my abilities https://www.thepackersfanshop.com/Jamaal-Williams-Jersey , and I’m loving it.”Montgomery took most of the first-team reps in the offseason program with Le'Veon Bell training in Florida. It’s his third offense in a matter of months.Running backs coach Jim Bob Cooter called Montgomery a “pro . . . [who] knows how to learn things.”“I’m trying to win the day,” Montgomery said. “It’s something I learned in college — win the rep, win the down, win the practice, win the day. It’s one thing at a time every day, enjoy each moment. That’s just what I’m expecting from myself, just to enjoy each moment as long as I’m here and hopefully I can be here for a long time.” Much has been made about the relationship between current Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers and former Packers quarterback Bart Starr. Starr also had a special relationship with former Packers quarterback Brett Favre.Favre told SiriusXM NFL Radio on Tuesday that, after every game, he’d receive a letter from Starr.“I think the thing that kind of tells you a lot about what type of guy he is, there wasn’t a game that I didn’t get a letter from him, whether it be complimenting me on how I played or the fact that we won Dean Lowry Jersey , or ‘keep your chin up, it will get better,'” Favre said. “I mean, you think about the games that I played, that’s a lot of games. To get a personal note from Bart each and every time, I’m not gonna lie, it made me feel pretty special.”In 2016, Starr’s wife, Cherry, said that the two men had a memorable moment when Favre’s jersey was retired.“He looked up at Brett, and Brett looked down at him Kentrell Brice Color Rush Jersey , he looked up and he said, ‘I love you, Brett,'” Cherry Starr said, via the Pro Football Hall of Fame’s website. “And Brett looked down with tears in his eyes and said, ‘I love you too, Bart.’ It was the sweetest moment.”The Packers didn’t have a franchise-type quarterback between Starr and Favre, and the team’s results proved it.
