The New York Jets and Buffalo Bills played a wild overtime game on Monday night, with New York coming out on top. It started rough for the Jets, losing QB Aaron Rodgers early in the game, but they were able to survive with a hard fought overtime win.

With it still being the NBA offseason, the return of football is taking center stage in the sports world right now. Many NBA players are also NFL fans, including Denver Nuggets champion Collin Gillespie, who shared this reaction to the OT thriller on Monday night:

A rookie himself, Gillespie reacted to rookie Xavier Gipson winning it for New York. This was as wild of a finish as there can be in the NFL, with Gipson taking the punt return into the end zone for the win. As previously mentioned, Nuggets guard Collin Gillespie is a rookie himself, having not appeared in a game for Denver last season after signing a two-way contract last year as an undrafted free agent.

As the NBA offseason drags on, expect to see more NBA players sharing their reactions to the beginning of the NFL season. This is always a great time for NBA players to enjoy some other sports, with football starting up, and MLB approaching their postseason play.

NFL season just began, and some exciting games have already been turned in.
