Kellen Winslow Signs One-Year Contract

Antonio Cromartie to rent house with teammates in California
New York Jets cornerback Antonio Cromartie is making leaps and bounds in taking over the leader role Darrelle Revis vacated when he was traded to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He’s doing everything right. From being an apparent financial guru to now, according to NJ.Com, Cromartie plans to rent a house in California with some of his teammates. No not for baby making purposes, but to...
Although a gimp, the New York Jets should frequently target Kellen Winslow on intermediate routes
The offensively challenged New York Jets signed tight end Kellen Winslow to a one-year contract on Friday. Catching 438 balls for 4,848 yards and 23 touchdowns since debuting in the NFL in 2004, the 29-year-old Winslow is now a gimpy bastard lacking the ability to spread the field. Regardless, in comparison to Jeff Cumberland and Hayden Smith, the 2007 Pro Bowl selection is akin...

Welcome back to the NFL, Kellen Winslow.
The veteran tight end, who spent nine days with the Patriots last season, signed a one-year deal with the Jets on Friday after completing a three-day minicamp tryout.

New York Jets OTA Summary
Mark Sanchez, Greg McElroy and Geno Smith during OTA’s
The New York Jets opened up OTA’s on Tuesday with a fury of question marks. The biggest question mark, as always with the Jets, is the play of their quarterback. All eyes were on QB Mark Sanchez and second round draft pick QB Geno Smith. To start OTA’s most of the first-team snaps were taken by Mark Sanchez however, on...
JETS-SETTER
Rex Ryan pats himself on the back
Rex Ryan believes he isn't given the respect for his coaching acumen that he deserves, saying, "I’m a hell of a lot better football coach than I’m given credit for."
The ghost of Tony Sparano: Jets spend most of practice running Wildcat
Looks like the New York Jets aren't abandoning the played out Wildcat formation, reports Brian Costello of the New York Post.
On their final minicamp session Thursday, the Jets seemed hell-bent to work on the lowly regarded formation that the Miami Dolphins used to catch teams by surprise at the beginning of the 2008 season.
Offensive coordinator Tony Sparano is gone, but...
Santonio Holmes won’t commit to playing week 1
Santonio Holmes has been busy rehabbing a Lisfranc injury (and mentoring players) and to say it’s been a long process would be an understatement. Though he wouldn’t commit to anything, it appears Holmes is now in danger of missing at the very least week 1 of the regular season. When asked if he would be ready for training camp, Holmes simply said, [sic]“It’s taking one day...
Rex Ryan rips Jets’ receivers for drops
As we've come to know him, Rex Ryan is the ultimate players coach, often times going out of his way to defend his own.
So it's a bit surprising for the Jets' fifth-year coach to collectively rip his group of presumably butterfingered receivers, as he did on Wednesday.
“What wasn’t outstanding was the way we caught the football yesterday. We dropped a ton of balls...
89-Day New York Jets Warning – The Promise Of Geno Smith
Here at Turn On The Jets, we decided to take a page out of Robert Mays book over at Grantland (a polite way of saying rip his article idea off) by counting down the 115 days until the New York Jets kick off, with a daily reason to get excited about their return. Mays has the whole NFL to work with, we only have the Goddamn Jets…now there is a challenge, step your game up Mays...
New York Jets – Looking Beyond The QB
With the first round of Jets OTA’s in the books, the debate on who should be the starting QB come week 1 against Tampa Bay is really heating up. The fanbase is as down on Mark Sanchez as ever, and the vitriol directed towards him has reached monumental proportions. Yes, I am aware of the reasons for this, and whether it is a fumble, an interception, a headband, another interception...
Will Hayden Smith Have A Breakout Season?
After spending a full year on the New York Jets roster, primarily as a practice squad player, former rugby player Hayden Smith is competing for a role in the 2013 offense. After promising performances in recent OTA’s Smith has been a popular discussion point amongst the Jets fan base, as the team is searching for signs of life at their tight end position. As training camp is around...
STILL THE GUY
Will Sanchez open season as starter?
The Jets have reportedly been unimpressed with Geno Smith so far in training camp, and Mark Sanchez could still be the Jets #1 guy come September.
Five reasons why Tim Tebow's NFL career is over
