In a bit of surprising news, the Jets have announced today that WR Scotty McKnight, a practice squad player, has a torn ACL. He will be placed on injured reserve. The Jets have re-signed WR Michael Campbell to fill his spot on the practice squad.
I know I'm in the minority, but I really like McKnight and think he has the potential to be a Wayne Crebet-type wide receiver. I'm not happy to hear about this setback, although for the team's short-term, it makes absolutely zero difference. Campbell has been cut enough from the Jets that he probably doesn't have a future here, so this is just a filler spot. Let us know what you think in the comments below.
