The New York Jets announced that Berry suffered a season-ending knee injury in practice on Friday.

 

The former second-round pick was in line to be a starter for the Detroit Lions last season before being arrested twice in one month during the offseason. He was cut by the Lions last July and served a three-game suspension for a DUI and brandishing a gun in his hometown of Harrisburg, Pa. Berry signed with the Jets in October, appearing in seven games.

 

More bad news for the bad news jest.

Living in NJ I am always torn when people use the term NJ Jets to insult the Jets. On one hand I hate the Jets and love to see them being insulted. On the other using my beloved state as the method to insult them isn't something I am really appreciative of (Also Jets fans in New Jersey wouldn't consider that an insult anyway).

LeCharles Bentley. I remember he was one of the top free agents in the 2006 Class, a 26 year old center at the time who had made the probowl twice for the Saints. He was considered the top prize for the Browns that year but he suffered a freak injury in the first play of training camp. He collected big money that first year and then after a comeback attempt in 2007 could get back on the field again (Looked up those last few bits).

No. Berry sucks. Well, with how garbage the Jests CBs are, I guess it could have happened.

 

Example #50000 to shorten training camp.

 

They've got cromartie and milliner. That's better than we have at corner

Jets CB are a pretty decent bunch they have Cromartie a legit number one, they just drafted Dee Millner in the 1st round, and they have Kyle Wilson who is decent. Jets are a mess on offense but their D isn't bad.

It's news like this that makes me nervous.

 

Almost makes you kind of hope that the players don't practice at all during camp.

I hear ya.

You also could think of it like if it did not happen then it would happen first game. Which provides you with less time to adjust.

I don't see it as an insult, just a statement of fact. They do not play in New York State, therefore calling them the NY Jets is inaccurate. A friend of mine who is a Giants fan counters that we should therefore be the Orchard Park Bills. To which my response is, fine, NY Bills, NJ Jets/Giants. Everybody's happy.

Example #50000 to shorten training camp.

 

1) The offseason programs have gone from a 14 week period to a 9 week period.

 

2) The number of OTA days has gone from 14 to 10.

 

3) The dreaded "two-a-days" (two full-contact practices) in training camp have been completely eliminated.

 

4) Training camp practices are now limited to no more than 3 hours. If there is a second practice that day, it has to be a walk-thru practice lasting no more than 1 hour.

 

5) Also new in training camp is the rule stipulating that teams give their players one complete day off per week with no practices or meetings.

 

6) Teams cannot have a padded practice until at least the 4th day of training camp.

 

7) During the regular season the team may hold no more than 14 full-pad practices with no more than 11 such practices in the first 11 weeks and the remaining 3 padded-practices spread out over the final 6 weeks.

 

The players are overjoyed by these changes for good reason.

 

What happened to Commings was virtually a non-contact injury. In the Cowboys training camp they've already suffered two non-contact injuries involving a bone bruise to the knee and a ruptured achilles tendon.

 

Despite now enjoying the safest practice standards in decades, injuries will never be eradicated from NFL practices.
