Jarryd Hayne, by virtue of what he has already achieved in the NFL, has made the Yanks sit up and watch.
Unfortunately he is playing in a very poor team, one that is low in the bottom half of the 32 team NFL. It has only 3 or 4 good players, such as chief running back Carlos Hyde. Unlike the superstar punt/kick returner of years gone by, Devin Hester, who made his debut for the powerful Chicago Bears, Jarryd Hayne gets limited help from his team mates, one of whom actually knocked him over as Jarryd was trying to take a catch.
If Jarryd can keep going in this crap team, and make an impression despite the team quality handicap, he might eventually get taken up by a good team and become a superstar like Devin Hester.
