Funeral held for ex-NY Jet McKnight after road rage shooting
NEW ORLEANS — Six former New York Jets teammates were pallbearers at the funeral for football player Joe McKnight, who was shot and killed Dec. 1 during a road-rage incident in suburban New Orleans.
The Advocate reported (http://bit.ly/2hgez2K ) that Monday’s service in New Orleans was officiated by Bishop William McPherson, who told the congregation at New Home Ministries that he had baptized McKnight.
McKnight played for the Jets from 2010 to 2013.
