Former Jets cornerback Darrelle Revis is working out in Florida with the hope of getting on the field this season, Jason Cole of Bleacher Report tweets. Of course, the offset language tied to the $6MM he is owed from the Jets complicates matters.

At this stage of his career, no team would dream of paying Revis upwards of $6MM, but that’s what the veteran was said to be pushing for back in May. Playing for anything less $6MM would mean that Revis is effectively playing for free, but that’s exactly what he’ll have to do if he wants to get on the field this fall.
“His tape is so bad that it’s probably scaring a lot of teams away,” one scout said in the spring. “If he still thinks he’s a starter — and wants to be paid like a starter — that will be an issue.”
Revis is no longer an elite cornerback, but he could still be a viable starting option for a team out there. Last year, he graded out as the league’s No. 64 corner, according to the advanced stats at Pro Football Focus.
Revis’ market could also be impacted by his perceived lack of effort in 2016. Many who watched the tape on Revis have said that the cornerback seemed to be giving up on plays and his body language indicated that he had given up on his Jets team as well. To some degree, Revis’ frustrations with the lowly Jets of 2016 are understandable. But teams will be wary about bringing in a veteran who might be a bad influence on younger players.
He better take a reduced salary and role
The jets are so poorly run, if you owe him
6m then why not play him at safety or
Nickel. He’s got to be better than what you have.
The $6 mil was just his guaranteed base salary part of his contract. He was due to make around $15 mil for 2017 before he was cut.
He had been giving up on plays. You do not want the Jets two new safeties to be exposed to negativity. Plus, they are “Sucking For Sam.”
He made the biggest mistake of his life by taking the money in New York and leaving New England! If he would have stayed in New England he would have a super bowl ring! That’s why he gave up on the jets because they are not a winning franchise!
He has a Super Bowl ring from the year he was there. He played during the Malcom Butler play SB against Seattle. He and a Brandon Browner both left the team after the SB win, which sprung Butler and Logan Ryan into starting roles.
Lols. Cmon bro you just schooled by a fact that anyone could’ve googled. Have a laugh it happens to the best of. Hard to keep up with which season an AFC East for defects to Foxboro, though, for sure
See I can’t even spell. Best of us*
I know I meant another one!
