Star corner still holding out
The New York Jets aren't playing around this year, looking to strike while the iron's hot and take a run at the Super Bowl. They have a stable of young bucks on offense and a defense that can get after the quarterback - provided they can shut down outside recieving threats.
Therein lies the problem. Darrelle Revis, considered by most as the absolute best corner back in the NFL, is still at home as he goes through a contract dispute. The All-Pro corner is in the fourth year of a six-year contract that will pay him $ 1 million. Revis wants to be the highest paid corner in the league after Oakland inked Nnamdi Asomugha to a $45.3 million three-year deal.
Revis may not report for a while
Right now, in the opening days of camp, this isn't the biggest deal in the world. But what has Jets brass concerned is that the situation doesn't seem any closer to being resolved.
