Coles a Jet for the third time
Tutor
NY Jet. Don't know what to make of this, but it can't hurt while
Holmes serves his suspension. He didn't show much last season on the
Bengals, but a the 4th receiver after Edwards, Holmes and Cotchery, I
think we are well set at the position.

They needed more depth to round out the roster in case of injury,
especially for the first four weeks like you said. Good signing. I
assume he was cheap?

AND..., according to Cimini:
"It's an insurance policy for them," Coles said. "Those first
four games are very important for the team to get where they want to
go. It's an opportunity for me to come in and see what I can still do,
but there's a slim chance I'll be there after four games. There's a
good chance I'll get released; it depends on how things go. They were
honest and open about it. It is what it is."
Cimini goes on to say:
As a veteran, if Coles is on the opening day roster, his base
salary will be guaranteed. It's believed that he signed for the
veterans' minimum, $855,000 -- which wouldn't be a bad take for
training camp, plus four games.
Not a bad signing, but that takes away the deep threat that Clowney
could provide. WE know that Coles doesn't have that top end speed
anymore. I hope he doesn't eat up a roster space that might more
profitably go to someone not as high on the radar right now.

probably clowney or henry wont make it... or may be coles wont... at
least we have options and depth at that position now
