In 1993 Tate signed with the New York Jets. There exists a football card of him in a Jets uniform (1993 Power #149). However he is never credited with being on the Jets. He played in 14 games for the Giants, starting 1. He was possibly available to the Jets for 2 games? For some reason his stint with the Jets is a mystery.
