Give Tom Brady a chance to rib the Jets, and he is likely to take it.
The Jets cut running back Danny Woodhead in 2010. The Patriots picked him up and he has been a playmaker for them ever since. Woodhead had a pair of touchdowns during Sundays victory over the Bills. So on his WEEI-FM radio show Monday, Brady took an opportunity to remind people that the Jets once cut Woodhead.
"Hes been that way since the day he got here," Brady said. "I remember his first game againstwe played Buffalo at home. I think it was the third game of the season. He had a similar-type run play for a touchdown. We kind of joked on the sideline(former offensive coordinator) Billy (OBrien) and I, we kind of said, 'The legend is born.' We saw him that week in practice, what he was capable of doing, and said, 'Why did the Jets release this guy?' They had him playing receiver and he was a running back in college.
"Hes just come in and done such a great job. Hes the ultimate team player and teammatedependable, consistent, you always know the level of play youre getting from Danny." Source: Sporting News Attached Thumbnails
