Keller Eager for His 2nd Go-Round at Gillette

File Under: New England Patriots, Brett Favre, Gillette Stadium, Dustin Keller, Jim Leonhard, Mark Sanchez

Dustin Keller is ready to rock and roll again at Gillette Stadium on Sunday.

"I love it. It's definitely a hostile environment," said Keller, the second-year tight end who had one of his career games at the Patriots' home about 53 weeks ago. "It's a huge game when the Jets and Patriots get together. We know the crowd's going to be real loud at the end of the game, so it's going to be a challengin… More

Read It and Weep: Jets 'Believe in Each Other'

File Under: Tom Brady, Bill Belichick, Rex Ryan, New England Patriots, Vernon Gholston, Jim Leonhard, Mark Sanchez, Kleenex, Sugar Ray Robinson, Sugar Ray Leonard

There were several hot topics at today's Rex Ryan news conference: the challenge presented by the first-place Patriots on the road on Sunday, the ripple effect through the secondary that Jim Leonhard's thumb surgery could create.

And with that the Jets head coach plunked a box of Kleenexes on his podium in the media room at the … More

But you don't want to hear that. And Rex Ryan doesn't want to hear it, either. As he… More

Rex Works for Answers; Leonhard: Surgery

File Under: Rex Ryan, New England Patriots, Kenwin Cummings, Ahmad Carroll, Jacksonville Jaguars, Marquice Cole, Jim Leonhard

Rex Ryan had some news and some quiet resolve to pass along at his news conference today.

The news had to do with safety Jim Leonhard, who will have or has had surgery on his injured right thumb today, and on two transactions, the waiving of Ahmad Carroll and the signing of Kenwin Cummings from the practice squad.

Lowery's Double Dip: He'll Start at CB, KR

File Under: Justin Miller, Vernon Gholston, Dwight Lowery, Danny Woodhead, Jacksonville Jaguars, Marquice Cole

It could be a big day for Dwight Lowery at the 4-4 Jets' return-from-the-bye, gotta-have-it game against the equally 4-4 Jacksonville Jaguars today.

Lowery has been announced as the starting cornerback for Lito Sheppard, who is active but will be worked back in judiciously after missing five of the previous six games with quadriceps issues.

That much we knew. But Lowery has also been announced a… More
