New York Jets' Stephen Hill: 'New England Patriots game is big'

New York Jets wide receiver Stephen Hill has admitted that the upcoming clash against rivals the New England Patriots will increase the energy on the field.

Hill said that although he would look to treat it as any other game, such a big game so early in the season ensures that it will be a "big deal" for some.

"Just the regular season, a regular game, I just treat it as a normal game," he told NJ.com

"A lot of people do make a big deal out of it being a rivalry, and that does step up your game a little bit, being hyped. The energy is higher."

The Jets squeezed past the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in their opening game of the season.
