NEW YORK -- At first glance, the new jersey just looks plain strange.The different colors and team names probably even cause a few double-takes.When NFL players switch from teams with which they had long been associated to new destinations, either through trades or free agency, it often takes a little getting used to for fans and sometimes the players themselves.Some, however, completely embrace the wardrobe makeover.I look good in red and blue, said a smiling Damon Harrison, the New York Giants nose tackle who spent his first four NFL season in the Jets green and white.Heres a look at some other familiar faces in new places -- and colors:---RYAN CLADY, LT, JETSThe four-time Pro Bowl selection was a fixture on Denvers offensive line, but injuries limited him to just 30 games over the last three seasons. When the Broncos signed former Seattle left tackle Russell Okung in March, Clady became expendable. Denver traded him to the Jets, who were in need of a left tackle after the durable DBrickashaw Ferguson suddenly retired in April. Clady, who has recovered from the torn knee ligament that kept him out all last season, will be in charge of protecting Ryan Fitzpatricks blind side.
