Shonn Greene - RB - New York Jets
Aug. 12, 2010 - 2:55 PM ET
Coach Rex Ryan referred to Shonn Greene as the Jets' "bell cow" running back in a post-practice press conference Tuesday, and says he's "been really impressed with Shonn" in training camp.
"Everyone knows the kind of runner he is, the kind of ability he has when the ball's under his arm," said Ryan, adding that Greene is "much better in the pass protection game." Ryan tried to save face by lightly praising LaDainian Tomlinson, but the backfield is Greene's moving forward. His improvement in blitz pickup also bodes well for a few more receiving opportunities.
