Jets First Session Training Camp Report

Four things we didn't expect: 1.First round pick Darrelle Revis not to be in camp. When you trade up to get an early first rounder, you need to be sure to sign him. And the Jets generally always sign their first round picks. As of the end of the first morning session he was not signed. Not much chance he's in the starting lineup against the Patriots now. Something tells me Tom Brady isn't worried either way. 2.Cedric Houston would leave the team for personal reasons. Nothing I can find in writing states if it's temporary or permanent. Stay tuned. 3.Pete Kendall would be at camp. His "trade or release me" demands were very clear. What is also clear ~ he is asking too much money for someone his age (34) and clearly past his prime. I looked up his pro bowl statistics. There are none. Maybe he figured out he has a good thing going. Or maybe it was the $14k a day it would have cost him to hold out. 4.Coach Eric Mangini to show up having reportedly lost close to 50 pounds during the off-season. Maybe he attended Charlie Weis' trial and they wouldn't let him bring food into the courtroom. Good for you Coach. I just hope you aren't in better shape than everyone else in camp.
