John Wolford went from finance to Jets to Super Bowl backup

John Wolford’s first NFL snap came in the 2018 preseason with the Jets. Now he’s getting ready for Super Bowl LVI.

It’s been quite the football journey for Wolford. He signed with the Jets three days after he accepted a job at North Carolina-based private equity firm Teall Capital in the summer of 2018 and played in one preseason game for Gang Green.
