Jets CB Darrelle Revis talked today about the disconnect with Rex Ryan and the Jets locker room.
Just coming in this morning…
Multiple reports are coming out that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have named Rutgers head football coach Greg Schiano to be their next head coach. The two sides are working to finalize a contract to make it official.
Maybe it was the wine talking but former New York Jets quarterback Joe Namath told the New Jersey star-ledger that he feels awful about his relationship with the team recently.
Here’s the article:
Congratulations to Jets WR Plaxico Burress, who was just announced as the Sporting News comeback player of the year.
Former New York Jets offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer was officially hired as the St. Louis Rams’ offensive coordinator on Tuesday.
Speaking to the media, via conference call, Schotty said he knew he would not have been returning to the Jets after this season.
“I don’t think so,” he said.
For his part, Schottenheimer confirmed that the parting was mutual, something that head coach Rex Ryan said at the time.
“I was excited about the possibility of a change and I quite honestly couldn’t be more pleased of how it ended up, that I’m here in St. Louis working for a guy that is just a terrific head coach (Jeff Fisher).”
Oh, and by the way, the Rams visit the Jets next season.
“I’ll look forward to all the games, but it will be fun to go up against those guys,” he said. “Being in New York for six years, I’ve got some great relationships back there. Really, really had a great time coaching there. We had a lot of success. I’m thrilled about the things we were able to do. I wish we could have gotten over the hump and made it to a Super Bowl, but it will a fun game to look forward to.”
Apparently, there was an error on the scoreboard at Gillette Stadium that affected Billy Cundiff, causing him to rush his routine before the game-tying attempt. Deliberate? Coincidence? Read this post from Deadspin, and you be the judge.
Below are Rivals.com top 100 high-school recruits:
New York Jets Wide receiver Plaxico Burress was hit with a $125,000 plus interest judgment by a Florida court after being sued by a woman who filed a lawsuit claiming he rear-ended her car with his Mercedes-Benz.
The woman, Alise Smith, claimed neck and back injuries from the 2008 incident.
Apparently, Burress had no car insurance at the time of the accident.
Dolphins want Peyton Manning
Always a bridesmaid, never a bride.
The Miami Dolphins, losers in the Jeff Fisher chase, now have their sights on another: Peyton Manning.
The Miami Herald, citing two sources with direct knowledge of the Dolphins’ plans, reports that Manning is the quarterback the Dolphins will pursue if he is released by the Indianapolis Colts.
Owed a $28 million roster bonus on March 8, Manning may get released by the Colts before that time which will make him an unrestricted free agent. With the Number 1 pick in the NFL Draft, and believed to want Andrew Luck, the Colts are torn on which direction to take the organization.
The New York Jets have been rumored to want Manning as well, as are the Arizona Cardinals.
In case you missed it, here’s Baltimore Ravens kicker Billy Cundiff missing a 32 yard field goal which would have sent the Ravens and New England Patriots into overtime in the AFC Championship Game yesterday.
