As two Hoboken-based companies, the synergies will be organic and easy to find.”
Casey Halpern, director of media and content at Prophet, added: “I have long been a fan and subscriber of Badlands and Turn On The Jets, so this partnership was a no-brainer for us. Connor, Joe, and Will have been building an incredibly loyal community of die-hard Jets and football fans for a few years now.”
