Jets captain Andrew Ladd addresses his ‘decision’

Not that the captain needs to justify his decision he spoke today in San Jose about the choice he made to stay home with his wife and new daughter instead of playing against Dallas on Monday.

Captain Ladd Quotes:

“I felt it was right to stay and make sure my wife was ok, my daughter was ok.  We don’t have any family in town so I wanted to be there to support them”.

“I don’t think there is anything else but family.  For me that is my #1 priority and trumps everything else in life so pretty easy decision for me.”
