In an e-mail to Rich Cimini of The New York Daily News, Jets restricted free agent running back Leon Washington's agent, Alvin Keel, said Washington's decision of skipping the Jets off-season program has "nothing to do with him being unhappy. "He loves New York and the fans. However, we have some interest out there in Leon. Truth of the matter is, if a team is going to give up a second-round pick, it would probably get done closer to the April 15th deadline vs. right now. He will be four weeks further along in his rehab than he is right now. It only makes sense from a business standpoint." Keels also noted, via his Twitter page, that he expects Washington to receive clearance in 10-14 days to start running. It sounds like Washington is trying to get as healthy as he can by mid-April, hoping to garner some 11th-hour interest in the free-agent market.

Hoping the Eagles even with the Bell signing (in theory) - punt and kick returns to take some of that off of DeSean
