FOXBOROUGH -- Welcome to Gillette Stadium, where the Patriots (6-3) host the Jets (6-3) in an AFC East clash tonight (8:15 p.m. ET).

It is currently 47 degrees and raining. Wind has the orange flags at the top of the goal posts lightly flapping.

It is "Troy Brown Night" at the stadium, with fans having the chance to recognize Brown, who spent 15 years with the franchise. Brown will be honored at halftime.

The Patriots are 11-1 in their last 12 games against the Jets.

This marks the second game at Gillette Stadium in a five-day span, marking the first time in Patriots history that the team has hosted two games in just five days.

Gene Steratore is scheduled to officiate tonight's game.

Jada is scheduled to sing the national anthem.

More to come throughout the night.
