Wide receiver · Jets 1994
A New York homecoming and another receiving record
For Monk, joining the Jets in 1994 was also a return to New York. The White Plains native had built most of his career in Washington before arriving for one season in green. He caught 46 passes and three touchdowns, then broke Steve Largent’s consecutive-games reception record. Largent came to the Meadowlands to see the moment himself.
The person behind the name
His Jets season joined a local homecoming to an important receiving milestone. Younger teammates also had the chance to learn directly from an established professional.
Monk caught five passes for 108 yards against Miami in November 1994, including a 69-yard reception.
Jets years: 1994. The honors above distinguish team recognition from Canton’s whole-career recognition.
