Darrelle Revis is scheduled to be at the Jets training facility tomorrow to sign the deal. Numbers likely to be a team, but not NFL record.

Revis and jets agree to 7 year deal, more details coming in
Im guessing its something like 7 years, 105-110 million....with 35-40 of it guaranteed.
Jesus Montero since June 1 (286 at-bats):
.325/.386/.605/.991
July 1 (182 at-bats):
.348/.417/.658/1.075

#Jets deal for Darrelle Revis is 7 years... it can be voided to 4 years, $46 million, per source. #nfl #nyj
Guaranteed money for Darrelle Revis: $32 million, per source. #nfl #nyj
We released Richardson? Seriously. >=(
"We're all worms, but I believe I am a glow worm."-Winston Churchill.
Darrelle is back baby. And for right about what I said: $30M guaranteed.
From ESPNThe Jets previously offered Revis a 10-year, $120 million contract and a four-year, $40 million deal, but there was only a small amount of guaranteed money in each proposal.
"I see Jesus Montero as a potential once-in-a-generation force on offense."
FINALLY. What a relief.
Thank god.
Now get back on the field and help win games.

Seems to me like Revis completely caved in. As a fan, I'm thrilled with this, but his agent seems to have failed pretty miserably.
According to ESPN, Darrelle Revis is set to earn $46 MM over 4 years, with $32 MM in various guarantees. That's $11.5 MM per season over what are likely going to be the peak seasons of his career, and he'll likely be the best defensive player in the league for the majority of that time.
$11.5 MM per year for the best player on his side of the scrimmage? Sounds good to this fan!
70% guaranteed money is great. Revis from here can earn all of that 46 mill and still be in line for another good pay day 4 years from now if he maintains his greatness...maybe the same contract again.
Good deal for both camps.
"Owning the Yankees," Steinbrenner once said, "is like owning the Mona Lisa."
Yeah, Rocket's way off. Most players get about 30-40% of their contracts guaranteed dependent on years and position [Mangold got 42% guaranteed]. Getting 70% of the deal guaranteed is a ridiculous amount.
By comparison, Asomugha's crazy contract had about 60% of the money guaranteed and, as bj already said, Revis is in line for FA again in four years as a 28 year-old.

Jets owner will buy tickets to avert blackout
By BART HUBBUCH
Neither the Giants nor the Jets will be blacked out on local TV in Week 1, but there sure are going to be a lot of empty seats at New Meadowlands Stadium.
The Giants say they have sold all non-premium seating for Sunday’s opener against the Panthers, meaning the game will be broadcast locally. But the club admitted yesterday that around 1,200 club seats requiring a PSL remain unsold.
The Jets, meanwhile, are in even worse shape sales-wise for their opener next Monday night against the Ravens, with more than 1,500 non-premium seats still available in the lower sections of their new 82,500-seat home despite a recent 50-percent slash in the price of the required PSL.
That normally would put a team in danger of a local TV blackout, which the Jets haven’t endured since 1977, but the team said yesterday that there is “no chance” the Baltimore game will be blacked out.
That’s because owner Woody Johnson can spend the money to make sure it doesn’t happen.
The Jets can take advantage of a loophole in the NFL’s blackout policy that allows team owners to get their games on local TV by buying up any unsold non-premium seats for 34 cents on the dollar.
If the number of unsold non-premium PSL seats remains unchanged, that means owner Woody Johnson would have to write a check of $100,000 or more for each of the eight homes game this season just to avoid the blackout.
“We do not have to inform the league until 72 hours prior to kickoff whether or not we are blacked out, but as we have said, we will be sold out, and there is no chance of a blackout,” Jets spokesman Bruce Speight said yesterday in an e-mail.
Those tickets the team buys can then be donated to charity or to the military, as the Jaguars have done this season and in previous years.
Though both games will be on local TV, the potential for bigger stretches of empty gray seats Sunday and Monday is high when the secondary ticket market is included.
As of yesterday, there were a combined 12,100 seats for resale online to the Giants-Panthers game and a combined 12,400 tickets for resale online for the Jets-Ravens contest, according to ticket aggregator Fansnap.com.
The Giants and Jets also have several thousand unsold tickets for games later in the season after each team quietly put single-game seats on sale late last month. The Giants angered some of their fans by dropping the longstanding PSL requirement on those seats.
Good for Jets fans for saying they won't pay ridiculous prices for tickets. Make Johnson pay the $100,000+ per home game all year. Then hopefully, next year the prices will be lowered.

It looks like he'll be back.

EDIT: Rex just confirmed in his press conference that Richardson will be re-signed.
Details of the Revis contract:
http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com...rst-two-years/
A holdout clause also included:
http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com...ent-a-holdout/
From that article it looks like another holdout is coming in two years if they don't get his ten year deal done by then.

From that it certainly looks possible however, I'd like to see another outlet aside from Florio report the details of the contract - specifically the holdout clause - before I worry about it.
"I see Jesus Montero as a potential once-in-a-generation force on offense."
Per Daily News:
"As Jets practice came to an end early Monday afternoon, Darrelle Revis, unshaven and walking slowly, emerged from the team's locker room entrance at the Atlantic Health Training Center. From afar, teammates watched him stroll toward them.
"I know it's along walk, but I was like, ‘Hurry the heck up,'" tight end Dustin Keller said.
Revis's approach quickened slightly. Teammates slowly clapped for him and bowed before the All-Pro cornerback who had held out the previous 35 days.
"We did the whole Rudy clap for him," linebacker Bart Scott said, referencing the inspirational football movie where the crowd gains momentum with each clap. "Personally, I'm just offended that I wasn't the first one to find out. He should have called me."
Center Nick Mangold, who recently signed his own long-term deal, started a chant of "Re-vis Christ!", calling his appearance similar to a Messiah's return."
haha yeah saw that yesterday. His teammates really dislike him, obviously.
I also liked Manish Mehta's article describing how Revis laid low during the holdout, including wearing an afro wig to remain incognito while walking around his hometown. Still, one Pittsburgh dude recognized him.
"I see Jesus Montero as a potential once-in-a-generation force on offense."
This guy incarcerated bob, who broke the Revis story, says the Jets are going after Jarvis Green. He also says if Pace didn't get hurt, Jason Taylor would have been cut.
http://twitter.com/incarceratedbob
He may seem crazy, but his info has been spot on.
From what I've heard, this guy makes a hundred predictions a day and every once in a while one turns out true. He probably has a network of contacts that are 99% full of it, but this weekend one guy gave him real info for once. But the thing is, he tweeted about the Revis deal after it was signed, he didn't have any sort of insider info before it happened
I don't know about his history before Revis (just what I've heard from others), but I did see his Revis news almost two hours before it broke.
Yeah he had the Revis info. hours before anyone else. Although I agree with GG, the guy does take a lot of random guesses to be taken too seriously.
"I see Jesus Montero as a potential once-in-a-generation force on offense."
Peter King interviewed Revis, and asked him if he would hold out again in two years. Revis said if he continues to play at this level, he probably would.
Shocking.

Doubt it will ever get to that. Tannenbaum himself called the 4-year contract an "intermediate step" toward keeping Revis a Jet for life. I bet they figure out a lifetime contract before that ever becomes an issue.

On Saturday, a female reporter from TV Azteca visited Jets practice. And she quickly became the center of attention.
In the locker room after practice, some players behaved in a manner that multiple reporters regarded as inappropriate. And now the league is investigating the situation.
"When we first heard of it, we immediately started the process of looking into it," NFL spokesman Greg Aiello told USA Today. "It's troubling. We've had contact with the team multiple times and are moving very aggressively to establish the facts."

Fistpumping like a champion.

NBC-NY has been promoting this as the lead story for its 11 PM news all through out the game tonight. Unreal. A provocatively dressed female reporter walks into a mens locker room and hears some harmless cat calls? Someone alert the church elders!RT @KevinGArmstrong #Jets behavior with female television reporter in locker room Saturday was addressed in team meeting tonight

Agreed that it's not a big story, but in the post-Rapelesberger era, it's bound to be an issue.

The reporter was just on CNN. She said the media totally blew the story out of proportion and she was shocked it became such big news.
It's refreshing to see someone be honest instead of trying to capitalize on the attention and public sympathy.
It seems that the season opener is not enough for some reporters to write a story.
I love how several news outlets went ahead with the story as some major breaking news before even thinking of asking the reporter herself if it was. Way to go guys.

Hope you guys don`t let me down............with all the hype I hope it`s not allI'm getting the same emotion tonight that I do before the Yankees seasons starts. I can't sleep.smoke and mirrors.......
Apparently the game is going to be delayed "at least a half hour" by lightning.

25 min delay
Friggin' Jinx can't catch a break. Defense can be an alltime great if he could stay on the field but that knee injury didn't look good.

Unbelievable.10 penalties for 100 yards. The Jets are like the Raiders east
Dem ol' grimy Jets...
Except they don't suck....?
