The Jets were unable to score any victories over the Patriots this season, so their star safety Jamal Adams had to take matters into his own hands.
During Pro Bowl practice on Wednesday, Adams targeted the Patriots mascot who apparently had been booed by fans throughout the day. The 23-year-old said early on in the practice that he would "knock out" Pat The Patriot, and he stuck to his word.

That'll go down as the most memorable tackle by a Jets player on a member of the Patriots all season.
Later on, Pat The Patriot got his revenge.
