C Nick Mangold missed practice for the second straight day, but head coach Rex Ryan said that he expects him to start on Monday against the Miami Dolphins. He should be able to practice tomorrow on a limited bais. Both DL Ropati Pitoitua, who suffered a knee injury against New England, and CB Isaiah Trufant, who suffered a hamstring injury, did not practice either.
August 30, 2011Jets Defeat Giants, As Starting Offense Struggles
posted by: Site Admin | 0 comments | Jets Player Release
QB Mark Sanchez completed only 8 of his 16 passes for a total of 64 yards, 1 TD, but big plays on defense and special team were all that the Jets needed to defeat their crosstown rivals and win the inaugural Metlife Bowl, 17-3. CB Antonio Cromartie's 68-yard kickoff return to the GIants' 35-yard line gave the struggling Jets offense an excellent field position late in the second quarter. Six plays later Sanchez connected with WR Santonio Holmes on a 17-yard TD pass, which was Sanchez' longest completion of the night. This turned out to be the game winning score, as the Gang Green took a 7-3 lead.
July 30, 2011Jets Bring Back Strickland, Might Get Plaxico Burress
posted by: Site Admin | 0 comments | Jets Free Agent Signings
The New York Jets signed CB Donald Strickland to a 1-year deal. Strickland played for the Gang Green in 2009, registering 26 tackles (22 solo), 2 pass defenses, 2 sacks and 1 forced fumble. Last season Strickland played for the Chargers who released him 2 days ago. Strickland, however, is no more than just a role player. So, the Jets still need a starter at CB, which means that they will still try to re-sign CB Antonio Cromartie or trade for CB Asante Samuel of the Philadelphia Eagles.
March 10, 2010Jets Looking To Add Depth To Secondary
posted by: Site Admin | 1 comments | Jets Free Agent Signings
The New York Jets are hosting their first free agents this offseason - S Brodney Pool (Browns) and CB Marlin Jackson (Colts). The Jets, who have recently gotten rid of S Kerry Rhodes, CB Donald Strickland and CB Lito Sheppard, lack depth in their secondary and we should expect more free agent defensive backs in Florham Park in the coming days.
Well, this one hurts, especially considering that at one point the Jets were up by 11 but ended up losing 17-30 and shut out in the second half. QB Mark Sanchez probably played the best game of his NFL career - 17 of 30 for 257 yards, 2 TD, 1 INT. The loss of RB Shonn Greene surely hurt the Jets, as did the loss of CB Donald Strickland and the blatant roughing the passer non-call, but let's face it the Colts were just the better team today...
The New York Jets listed 8 players as "probable" for the AFC Championship Game against the Indianapolis Colts. Although DE Shaun Ellis, who has a broken hand, is more "questionable" than "probable" for this game. Ellis will give it a go but he has trouble grabbing and if he feels he's hurting the team, he'll take himself out.
MLB David Harris returned to practice this morning after missing Tuesday and Wednesday sessions. Harris, who suffered a sprained right ankle in last Sunday's game against the Bengals, worked with the first team and didn't show any signs of being hindered by the injury in the portion of practice open to the media. Although, the official injury report lists his participation in the session as limited.

November 23, 200949ers Drop Tampering Charges, Lowery Doubtful
posted by: Site Admin | 0 comments | Jets Front Office
According to ESPN, San Francisco 49ers president Jed York is dropping the team's tampering charge against the New York Jets over WR Michael Crabtree. The 49ers filed tampering charges with the NFL regarding their negotiations with 1st round draft pick Crabtree. Deion Sanders, a former All Pro cornerback, said he knew two teams that were willing to pay Crabtree what he wanted while he was holding out from the Niners. The 49ers investigated and filed the charge against the Jets.
WR Jerricho Cotchery (hamstring), WR Brad Smith (quadriceps) and CB Lito Sheppard (quadriceps) will all miss Sunday's game against the Oakland Raiders. CB Donald Strickland (ankle) and OT Damien Woody (knee, foot) are both listed as "questionable" and expected to play. Strickland will finally see action after missing the previous four games due to an ankle injury.
October 23, 2009Cotchery And Smith Will Not Play Against Raiders
posted by: Site Admin | 0 comments | Injuries
Both WR Jerricho Cotchery and WR Brad Smith will miss Sunday's game against the Oakland Raiders due to hamstring and quadriceps injuries respectively. While Cotchery will most likely be ready for the Dolphins next week, Brad Smith could be out next week as well, according to head coach Rex Ryan. WR David Clowney will make his second start in a row, replacing Cotchery in the starting lineup. CB Lito Sheppard, who returned last week after missing the previous three games and reaggravated his quadriceps injury, will not play on Sunday as well.
Both WR Jerricho Cotchery (hamstring) and WR Brad Smith (quadriceps) have not practiced this week and are listed as "doubtful" for Sunday's game against the Buffalo Bills. It's pretty safe to assume that neither is going to play on Sunday. Although head coach Rex Ryan has stated that the availability of both receivers will be a game-time decision. OT Damien Woody (foot), another player who has not practiced this week, is listed as "questionable" but expected to play. DE Shaun Ellis (knee) is also listed as "questionable." He did not practice on Wednesday and Thursday and was limited this morning. CB Donald Strickland is also "questionable", he missed the last three games but is expected to suit up on Sunday.
WR Jerricho Cotchery sat out this morning's practice session with a hamstring injury. He was listed as "questionable" for the game against Miami but did play and caught one pass for 4 yards. This time, however, it looks more like Cotchery will not suit up against the Bills.
October 9, 2009Cotchery Misses Practice But Expected To Play
posted by: Site Admin | 1 comments | Injuries
WR Jerricho Cotchery missed this morning's practice session with a hamstring injury. Cotchery, who was limited in practice yesterday, spent the entire session riding a stationary bike on the sidelines. Head coach Rex Ryan stated that Cotchery is not 100% (obviously) but has not been ruled out for the Monday Night game. Ryan added that he expects Cotchery to play. The Jets will also practice tomorrow, as they have an extra day before the Dolphins game.
With 4 days left until the Monday Night game against the Miami Dolphins, the New York Jets have 8 players on their injured report. Both OT Damien Woody (foot) and CB Donald Strickland (ankle) did not participate in today's practice, which usually means that their game day status will be either "out" or "doubtful." Strickland will most likely miss the MNF game, while Woody is expected to play. WR Jerricho Cotchery (hamstring), S Kerry Rhodes (knee) and CB Lito Sheppard (quadriceps) all saw limited action this morning - usually means "questionable" status on game day. LB Larry Izzo (hamstring), S Jim Leonhard (knee) and LB Bryan Thomas (wrist) fully participated in the practice session and will most likely be listed as "probable."

The newest Jets' acquisition, WR Braylon Edwards, practiced with the Gang Green for the first time this morning. He wore a white #17 jersey and caught passes from rookie QB Mark Sanchez, as well as backups QB Erik Ainge and QB Kevin O'Connell. Edwards is expected to start opposite WR Jerricho Cotchery on Monday Night against the Miami Dolphins.

Injured CB Lito Sheppard practiced for the first time in two weeks this morning. He has missed the last two games with a quadriceps injury. CB Donald Strickland, who has also missed the last two games with an ankle injury, did not practice. OT Damien Woody did not practice either and his availability for the Monday Night game is a question mark. He suffered an ankle injury against the Saints. Another player who got injured on Sunday, rookie RB Shonn Greene, participated in the practice session as well.
October 4, 2009Jets Declare Inactives For Week 4

The New York Jets have declared the following players inactive for today's game against the New Orleans Saints: CB Lito Sheppard, CB Donald Strickland, QB Kevin O'Connell, LB Ryan Fowler, OG Matt Slauson, DE Ropati Pitoitua, DT Howard Green and QB Erik Ainge. Ainge is also #3 emergency QB.
As it's been reported earlier both CB Lito Sheppard (quadricep) and CB Donald Strickland (ankle) are going to miss Sunday's game against the New Orleans Saints. They were also out last week against the Titans. CB Dwight Lowery will start in place of Sheppard, while CB Drew Coleman will play nickel.

October 1, 2009Leonhard Returns to Practice, Sanchez Wins Award
posted by: Site Admin | 0 comments | Jets Regular Season
S Jim Leonhard returned to practice this morning after missing yesterday's session with a knee injury. CB Lito Sheppard (quad) and CB Donald Strickland (ankle), however, did not suit up at all. It's becoming more and more obvious that neither is going to play this Sunday against the Saints. CB Corey Ivy, a former Raven, was brought in for a tryout last week and will most likely be signed before Sunday's game. LB Larry Izzo and OL Wayne Hunter, both of whom missed yesterday's session as well, returned to practice this morning.
As we reported earlier today, CB Lito Sheppard (quad), CB Donald Strickland (ankle) and S Jim Leonhard (knee) did not practice this morning. Now it appears that both CB Darrelle Revis (hamstring) and S Kerry Rhodes (knee) were added to the injury report as well and limited in practice this morning. So, basically the entire Jets' secondary is now on the injury report (4 starters and the nickel back).
September 30, 2009Jason Trusnik Wins Award, Injury Update
posted by: Site Admin | 0 comments | Jets Regular Season
LB Jason Trusnik was named AFC Special Teams Player of the Week for games played the third week of the 2009 season (September 27-28). This is Trusnik’s first career Player of the Week Award. In the first quarter, he forced a fumble when he knocked the ball loose from Titans KR Ryan Mouton and recovered the ball at the Titans 19-yard line. The Jets scored five plays later to take a 14-0 lead. Through Week 3, Trusnik is tied for a team-high six tackles on special teams. The last Jet to win AFC Special Teams Player of the Week was RB/KR Leon Washington in 2008 (Week 11).

September 25, 2009Jets Try Out Cornerbacks, Final Injury Report
posted by: Site Admin | 0 comments | Injuries
It's now official that both CB LIto Sheppard and CB Donald Strickland will not play on Sunday against the Tennessee Titans. CB Dwight Lowery will start in place of Sheppard, while CB Drew Coleman will replace Strickland at nickel.
The New York Jets injury report keeps filling up, as the team now has 14 players on the list. Both CB Lito Sheppard and CB Donald Strickland did not practice again this morning. Neither player has practiced this week at all. Strickland has been basically ruled out for Sunday's game against the Titans, while it looks like the availability of Sheppard will be a game time decision. Even if Sheppard plays, it's doubtful that he'll be able to start and play on most downs. CB Dwight Lowery, who started 10 games in his rookie season last year, would start and CB Drew Coleman would play the nickel.
September 25, 2009Keith Bulluck Guarantees Win Against Jets
posted by: Site Admin | 0 comments | Jets Regular Season
LB Keith Bulluck of the Tennessee Titans apparently took some lessons on trash talking from Jets players and guaranteed a victory against the Jets on Sunday. "We're definitely getting back after it," Bulluck told reporters. "We’re going against a rookie quarterback. We plan on showing him a bunch of different looks and to take what Kerry Rhodes said last week, we want to knock their quarterback around. We're not a team that’s desperate. We’re a team that knows how to win. And we’re a team that plans on going to New York this week and getting a win, our first win."

As a clear indication that availability of CB Lito Sheppard and CB Donald Strickland for Sunday's game against the Titans is a question mark, the New York Jets activated CB Marquice Cole from the practice squad and waived TE Matthew Mulligan from the 53-man roster. Both Sheppard and Strickland suffered inuries in the game against the Patriots. Lito Sheppard had a strained quad, while Strickland tweaked his right ankle. Their statuses for Sunday's game are uncertain at this time.
September 21, 2009Rex Ryan: Jets Are Elite Team
posted by: Site Admin | 0 comments | Jets Regular Season
"I think so. Who do we have to beat?" was Rex Ryan's answer on ESPN 1050 when asked if the New York Jets were an elite team. The Jets are 2-0 after beating the New England Patriots on Sunday and suddenly on the radar of all media "experts", most of whom predicted the Gang Green to finish last in AFC East. Ryan did not stop there, however, as he added that the Jets won the Super Bowl in his dad's first year as a coach in New York, and so maybe the Gang Green just needed a Ryan on their coaching staff to return to Super Bowl glory.
CB Darrelle Revis, who shut down WR Andre Johnson and WR Randy Moss in consecutive weeks, is among Sunday's five most valuable players on Yahoo Sports. "He’s in my top three corners in the NFL", said former All Pro Deion Sanders, and added that "all who are listening and watching please take the Jets seriously."
