He's back, but he won't be on the field any time soon. Dimitri Patterson's mysterious absence has led to an indefinite suspension, Jets general manager John Idzik announced on Monday.
No matter what they tell the media, Ryan and Idzik have to understand that outside help is needed. While they are loathe to take on long-term money, they have plenty of room under the 2014 cap to look into one-year fixes.
The moves put the Jets' roster at 75 players, the maximum that teams must be at by Tuesday night.
Smith had a solid preseason and took about 80 percent of the snaps with the starters over Vick during training camp, making the announcement a mere formality.
New York bragging rights were on the line on Friday night when the Jets and Giants squared off. When the grills heated up on Friday so did an undeniable football rivalry.
Geno Smith and Michael Vick each threw touchdown passes with the New York Jets' starting offense, and the defense mostly shut down Eli Manning before the Giants' backups rallied for a 35-24 preseason victory Friday night.
Michael Vick has done everything asked of him and some things people don't really know about in his role as mentor to Geno Smith.
"At the end of the day, that's our house, and we consider it our house," Colon said of MetLife Stadium. "The only way to solve it is to beat them."
Hill is the real question mark in this game, not because of his immediate future, but because of his long-range outlook. He's a roster lock, but this is his last year as such.
Rex Ryan has not-so-fond memories of the last time the Jets faced the Giants. Well, other than winning a preseason game that earned his team a Snoopy-topped bronze trophy.
"Yeah, last time I saw him he was getting smoked by Clemson," Ryan said with a big smile.
Jalen Saunders still isn't quite sure what happened to him last weekend. The New York Jets rookie wide receiver just knows it was scary, and he's happy to be alive.
Andre Williams is just a rookie, but he is clearly of the New York mold. He hasn't even played a meaningful snap yet, and already he's trash talking.
John Idzik has heard the anger about the offseason's allocation of funds. He just wants everyone to take a deep breath. He says he's got this.
