Sanchez Participates in Drills
Mark Sanchez is coming along just fine. Considering he had surgery on his left knee three months ago, it’s fair to say he’s ahead of schedule.
Sanchez fully participated in drills yesterday at the team’s OTA in Florham Park, and those who witnessed his performance were impressed. Sanchez, entering his second year as the Jets’ quarterback, will be on hand next week during the team’s mandatory minicamp which begins Monday.
Tomlinson’s New Role
Daily News’ beat writer Manish Mehta reports that LaDainian Tomlinson will get plenty of work during the preseason. This makes sense because Tomlinson, who will turn 31 later this month, has to learn and get used to the Jets’ system, and the team has to decide how to best use him.
Interesting quote from Brian Schottenheimer who said that “LaDainian’s fighting for playing time. He’s got to earn the right.” For the first time in his NFL career, that’s true.
A ‘Super’ Season
With the additions to the roster and the success experienced last season, the Jets are expected to make a run at the Super Bowl. The Sporting News is predicting that the Jets will win the Super Bowl. The magazine has New York (13-3) beating Dallas (12-4) on February 6 in Arlington.
