Speaking at the owners meetings Tuesday, coach Rex Ryan said the Jets are planning to keep disgruntled ILB Bart Scott.
“Why wouldn’t (he be back)?” Ryan said. “I’ve had great discussions with Bart. He’s got his weight down. He felt that he probably got a little too heavy last year.” According to the New York Daily News, Scott has shed 10-15 pounds. ESPN New York reported last week the Jets were still shopping Scott after granting him permission to seek a trade in February, but that his guaranteed $4.2 million salary continued to be a “deal breaker.”
