Get the latest news and rumors about the New York Jets from Rant Sports.
It’s not everyday that you come across a 6-foot-6, 250-plus pound tight end who is extremely athletic, but the New York Jets might have just stumbled upon one. Hayden Smith, a former rugby star in England, was signed by the Jets last season with zero experience with the sport, but has transformed himself into a [...]
Nothing is set right now in regards to the New York Jets offense. From the top to the bottom, with the exception of Santonio Holmes, Nick Mangold, and D’Brickashaw Ferguson, nobody has a guaranteed starting spot on the team. At the running back position, newly acquired backs Chris Ivory and Mike Goodson are expected to [...]
One would think last year’s failure might have taught New York Jets head coach Rex Ryan that a two-quarterback system does not work. Apparently, this is not the case. Various media reports say Ryan is open to designing a read-option package for rookie quarterback Geno Smith if Mark Sanchez wins the competition. It has become [...]
For New York Jets receiver Santonio Holmes, the road to recovery has not been easy. Last season, Holmes was having a strong start to the year before suffering a devastating Lisfranc fracture in his left foot, an injury that required two surgeries and has rendered him physically unable to participate in practice. “A Lisfranc injury [...]

Before training camp begins in July, the Jets have a six-week break after mini-camp ends for players to regroup and prepare for the rigors of the NFL preseason. Cromartie is using that time to work. And he won’t be [...]
What a debacle. That’s really all you can say about Tim Tebow and his stint with the New York Jets. Some people called it a publicity stunt from the start, but I didn’t buy in right away. I thought the Jets were actually going to utilize the lefty QB in wildcat and goal line situations, [...]
It’s not often that a player who joins an NFL team in June ends up being a key piece of the puzzle, but veteran tight end Kellen Winslow could break that mold after officially inking a one-year deal with the New York Jets. Winslow, who turns 30 in July, attended Jets mini-camp this week on a tryout basis. [...]
Jeff Cumberland gives the New York Jets offense a glimmer of potential in a way it quietly possesses this strange 2013 offseason. The 6-4, 260-pound tight end has a long way to go before he more than just looks like Antonio Gates, but amidst an offense of interesting young players like Jeremy Kerley, Geno Smith [...]
