Jets Continue to Stockpile D-Ends

The New York Jets continued with their quest to sign anyone and everyone who has ever played defensive end by signing former Chief Eric Hicks on Tuesday.

Hicks has carved out a nice career for himself since signing with the Kansas City Chiefs in 1998 as a rookie free agent.  His 44.5 career sacks ranks him fifth on the all-time Chief list.

He will compete with the other 235 defensive ends the Jets have signed this off-season. 

 PROGRAM NOTE: For all Jet fans who have the NFL Network. 

The NFL Network will air the "Monday Night Miracle" from 2000 on Thursday, May 24, at 8 p.m.  I still don't have the NFL Network because Cablevision is a heartless monster, but I was lucky enough to have seen that game LIVE at the Meadowlands.  If you don't remember, this was the game where the Jets erased a 23-point deficit in the fourth quarter to come back and defeat the hated Dolphins, 40-37 in OT.  Obviously, it was the best game I have ever seen in person.  If you get the chance, revisit the Al Groh era along with the stars:

Vinny Testaverde (who flipped 5 TD passes)

Jason Taylor (who left the field in tears)

Jumbo Elliot (who caught his first and only career touchdown)

And a cast of thousands!
