Travis Henry was suspended for four weeks for violating the leagues substance abuse program.
Last weeks game for the New York Jets proved fatal for the team. Franchise Quarterback Chad Pennington suffered a shoulder injury and will miss the rest of the season. Dr. James Andrews discovered that his rotator cuff may not be torn as originally thought. Backup quarterback Jay Fiedler suffered a dislocated shoulder and will miss at least six weeks and possibly the entire season.
However, the Jets have moved on. Brooks Bollinger will start for the Jets this week. Bollinger has nine career attempted passes. The Jets have also brought back Vinny Testaverde for a second stint with the team and they hope he will take over later this season as the QB.
