It is, which is the main reason for the west side redevelopment - Hudson Yards in it's entirety, and which also happens to be the reason for this thread, which has gotten way off course. The bottom line is there will be no football stadium constructed in Manhattan for the JETS, mainly because there is no land or logical location to put one. But there are a host of other reasons not necessary to get into.
