Pete Kendall, the Jets OG, is unhappy with his contract situation and the Jet's decision not to address it. According to Adam Schefter (http://www.nfl.com/nflnetwork/story/10224902), he is going to go to the press with his issues at he start of Jets minicamp this weekend:


The opinionated and outspoken Kendall isn't planning to just burn a bridge. He is planning to napalm it.

Kendall is furious that he reworked his contract with three years remaining on it for the Jets last year, but they won't do the same for him this year.

As an initial sign of his unhappiness, Kendall stayed away from the Jets' voluntary Organized Team Activities, which is something that left New York head coach Eric Mangini unhappy himself.

Should be interesting. If Kendall gets his way and the Jets get rid of him, Miami will be first in line to sign him. Per Schefter:


Most NFL observers believe that, sooner or later, the 33-year-old Kendall is destined to be either traded or released. Whichever it is, a logical landing spot for him would be the Miami Dolphins, whose general manager, Randy Mueller, used the 21st selection in the 1996 draft to select Kendall back when he was making personnel decisions for the Seahawks.

Miami lined up at its most recent minicamp with Chris Liwienski at left guard and Rex Hadnot at right guard. Kendall would provide the Dolphins with an upgrade on a line determined to protect recently acquired quarterback Trent Green.

this is something jets fans have expected, much like the anticipated retiring of curtis martin........

it sucks to lose a leader on the line should he sign elsewhere, but eh, thats the business of football, and would be a huge chink in the offensive armor.......

best of luck to him anywhere else should he actually leave the jets and not reach a comprimise

Funny that Miami is the choice for retired people AND players who SHOULD retire.
