I would just put this in existing threads, but there was a lot of them. Jets | Pennington does not look threatened so far Fri, 16 Jun 2006 17:10:09 -0700 Ken Berger, of Newsday, reports although New York Jets rookie QB Kellen Clemens has impressed through four practices at minicamp, QB Chad Pennington doesn't appear to have much to worry about so far concerning his starting job. QB Patrick Ramsey struggled with his accuracy Friday morning, June 16, in his turn with the starting offense. In the two-minute drills late in the afternoon session, Clemens was intercepted twice, QB Brooks Bollinger once, and Pennington once, all in the red zone. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jets | Injury update: T. Teague Fri, 16 Jun 2006 16:56:33 -0700 ESPN.com's Len Pasquarelli reports New York Jets OL Trey Teague (ankle), projected as the team's starting center, will likely miss the opening of training camp and perhaps the start of the season with a broken left ankle. The injury occurred last week, during an organized team activities (OTA) session, when a teammate fell on Teague's lower left leg. With Teague sidelined, rookie OC Nick Mangold worked with the first-unit offense the first two days of minicamp. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jets | Mickens more involved Friday Fri, 16 Jun 2006 16:54:49 -0700 New York Jets head coach Eric Mangini said CB Ray Mickens (unknown) was more involved at practice Friday, June 16, than he was Thursday, June 15. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- New York Jets head coach Eric Mangini said RB Derrick Blaylock (leg) missed practice Friday, June 16. Mangini did not have a full status to give about Blaylock. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- New York Jets head coach Eric Mangini discussed QB Patrick Ramsey's performance at minicamp Friday, June 16. "Patrick, he's like those guys in terms of so competitive. I think anything that was perceived to be frustration I'm sure is just a result of his incredible competitiveness. With him, I'm sure after I look at the film, which I haven't looked at as of yet, there's going to be some stuff where he probably should have got it, some stuff that were great reads, progressions. But I can tell you, watching collectively, that's true with all the guys." ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jets | Mangini discusses running game Fri, 16 Jun 2006 16:46:51 -0700 New York Jets head coach Eric Mangini was asked if the team's offensive system dictates having a player that can carry the ball 30 times a game and he replied, "With the system, both offensively and defensively, we're going to cater that to always play to our strengths. It's going to be different week in and week out so the role for any player could vary. It could be 50 runs, 50 passes. We're always going to try to assess where we're strongest, where they are weakest and how we can attack their weaknesses." ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jets | Mangini discusses Martin's rehab Fri, 16 Jun 2006 16:42:25 -0700 New York Jets head coach Eric Mangini commented on RB Curtis Martin's (knee) rehab Friday, June 16, "Curtis is on target in terms of rehab, doing everything we ask him to do. It's one of those things where it's June, so we've got a long way to go with everybody involved. That's kind of where we are." When asked if Martin was limited, Mangini replied, "Every single guy that is injured, we set up a program for. We follow that program. The most important thing is for all our guys to be healthy. We have a very good medical staff that's spent a lot of time with any player that is injured. We have a program. We follow the program. He's met or exceeded all the expectations of the program." ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jets | Enzor can't practice Fri, 16 Jun 2006 16:40:11 -0700 New York Jets head coach Eric Mangini said Jets LB Jamar Enzor (leg) could not practice at either practice Friday, June 16, because of a leg injury. The team will reevaluate him to see how he is doing before practice Saturday, June 17. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fri, 16 Jun 2006 16:30:11 -0700 New York Jets head coach Eric Mangini said Jets OL Ed Blanton (ill) could not practice at either practice Friday, June 16, because he was ill. The team is hoping he will return Saturday, June 17. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jets | King placed on NFL Europe Exempt/Injured list Fri, 16 Jun 2006 16:28:27 -0700 The New York Jets have placed OL Mike King on the NFL Europe Exempt/Injured list. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fri, 16 Jun 2006 16:20:20 -0700 The New York Jets have signed free agent FB Ben Moa (Dolphins) to an undisclosed contract.
This guy really doesn't want anyone to know what's going on. It's good to see a first time coach who isn't so open. Herm would tell the media damn near everything, asside from the most important thing which was Penny's injury.
Snapsots are great, but I have to say I've been impressed with the coverage of the minicamps on the official site so far. Much better than in the past.
