Remember everyone’s favorite red-headed step child from HBO’s Hard Knocks series this preseason? Running back Joe McKnight was constantly discussed and it was never good. Well, now he might be getting some playing time, even if it’s not what he had in mind. Head coach Rex Ryan says that due to injuries at cornerback, McKnight [...]
Ex-New York Jets sideline reporter Jenn Sterger met with the NFL today to discuss Brett Favre’s inappropriate voicemails and text messages that she received, the New York Post has learned. This meeting would be needed if the NFL were to discipline Favre in any way. We still aren’t sure that there will be any discipline [...]
While we all wait on pins and needles to find out the outcome of the latest Brett Favre nonsense (***rolls eyes and makes jerkoff motion with right hand***) regarding former New York Jets employee Jenn Sterger, one of Sterger’s friends has decided to talk to Steppin’ Out magazine. Allison Torres, 24, says that Favre and [...]
In a classic example of legal extortion, former New York Jets sideline reporter Jenn Sterger will decline the NFL’s request for interview if she is able to reach an agreement with Minnesota Vikings QB Brett Favre, according to the St. Paul Pioneer Press. Sterger is the centerpiece of an investigation of Favre as to whether [...]
When we talk about “shutdown” NFL cornerbacks, a few names come up. The big argument is always between New York Jets CB Darrelle Revis and the Oakland Raiders’ Nnamdi Asomugha. And despite his age, Champ Bailey from the Denver Broncos still gets in the discussion. But what about this season? How about a guy named [...]
On Monday Night, it was obvious that Brett Favre’s elbow was causing him some discomfort. During the second half, he was seen grabbing his throwing elbow after many of his passes. Tendinitis will do that. Many Packers, Jets, and Vikings fans might view Brett’s in-game elbow grabbing as a ploy to set up an excuse for when [...]
It feels like the NFL just started, but after this week 25 percent of the season will be done. In a blink of an eye we’ll be a quarter of the way through. So, before anything else flashes by, let’s get right into this weeks picks. Houston Texans (-3) over Oakland Raiders What a disappointing [...]
If the New York Jets are going to take out the Miami Dolphins this week, they’ll have to do so without some key players. As Mike Berardino of the South Florida Sun-Sentinel points out, several big names are listed as “out.” “Pace and Revis still listed as “out … C Nick Mangold (shoulder) didn’t practice, [...]
We mentioned earlier that New York Jets WR Braylon Edwards had a little issue with the drinky drink early this morning when he was pulled over and cited for DWI in New York City. The Jets were obviously not pleased and supposedly, head coach Rex Ryan is uber pissed off. According to the New York [...]
If it’s 5:15 AM and it’s still Monday for you, while it’s Tuesday for everyone else, you are most likely up to no good. In the case of New York Jets WR Braylon Edwards, it meant that he was driving around while intoxicated. And, oh yeah, the police noticed. He was pulled over Tuesday morning [...]
For those of you who thought about sitting Randy Moss this week because of his showdown with Darrelle Revis, you made a mistake. Revis left Sunday’s game against the Patriots and hasn’t returned. After having hammy issues this week, Revis tweaked it again chasing Moss on a deep pattern. At this point, it’s not looking [...]
You may or may not have heard about Inez Sainz from Azteca TV. Apparently, she went to do a story at the Jets’ facility and she got cat calls and other noises from some of the players. Well, it has re-raised the issue about the presence of women in locker rooms and Washington Redskins RB [...]
If it seems like we are a little heavy on the football posts lately, it’s only because it’s the greatest damn sport on the planet next to women’s field hockey (which we don’t cover nearly enough). But anyway, it seems like the New York Jets are going to rush newly signed CB Darrelle Revis as [...]
Let us preface this by saying that this seems to be one writer’s speculation. We kept looking for a quote or a source in this story and didn’t find one. But, Jason Cole of Yahoo! Sports says that if the New York Jets don’t come to an agreement with all-world CB Darrelle Revis soon, the [...]
The New York Jets have a lot of bravado. They also have a television show on HBO. In addition, they have released Laveranues Coles. Coles had just 19 yards on four catches running with the two’s and three’s in the preseason, so this isn’t a total shock. It also wouldn’t be a total shock if [...]
While guarantees have still not been finalized and that essentially means that the deal isn’t done, but someone with knowledge of the situation tells the Newark Star-Ledger that the New York Jets and center Nick Mangold have agreed to a seven-year, $55 million contract. One would have to think that Mangold will get more than [...]
According to Bob Glauber of Newsday, the New York Jets are close to signing center Nick Mangold to a long-term deal. That’s generally believed to be the case. But, according to Glauber, that is most certainly not the case with CB Darrelle Revis, despite what Tim Cowlishaw has said. Sources tell Glauber that the Jets [...]
Dallas Morning News columnist Tim Cowlishaw is standing by his report that the New York Jets and CB Darrelle Revis are close to coming to an agreement and that the deal will probably be announced on Wednesday. “@NickSpano i was told they will announce it this week, not def wednesday but probably wednesday. This person [...]
Did anyone happen to watch any Monday Night Football last night? The New York Giants traveled to play the New York Jets in what was supposed to be an epic battle. Not really, it’s preseason and no one really cares. Just seeing Jets and Giants fans jawing in the stands last night was a riot. [...]
According to Gary Meyers of the New York Daily News, the New York Jets and holdout cornerback Darrelle Revis aren’t even close to coming to an agreement on a new contract. How far is “not close?” Try $40 million. Meyers says that the two sides each have 10-year contract proposals on the table, but that [...]
The New York Jets are now nine days into training camp. That’s nine days without CB Darrelle Revis, who as you may have heard is holding out for more money. So, how long can he hold out? Could he possibly miss the entire season? Will he play for the Jets in 2010? “My gut feeling [...]
Everyone made it very clear that New York Jets CB Darrelle Revis wasn’t officially a holdout until 5:00 PM on Sunday. And until that point, he wasn’t a holdout. Ummm….now, he is. “We waited until last possible minute with hope of getting something done. Darrelle won’t be there,” Revis’ camp told the New York Daily [...]
New York Jets defensive tackle Kris Jenkins likes some of the moves the team has made this offseason. In an interview with NFL Network Tuesday night, it seems as though he likes the fact that some guys are no longer around. “We have great guys who have come in to step up and fill in [...]
This is annoying. Every year some NFL player says that they are prepared to hold out for as long as it takes in order to get a new deal. And every year, that player eventually caves when it comes to costing him paychecks and/or a year of accrued service. So when we saw Manish Mehta’s [...]
The New York Jets and D’Brickashaw Ferguson have apparently agreed to a six-year, $60 million contract, according to Adam Schefter. “Whoa: Jets reached agreement with OT D’Brickashaw Ferguson on a six-year, $60 million extension that includes $34.8 million in gtd money,” he tweets. The left tackle made his first Pro Bowl in 2009 after being [...]
