Report: Jets, Darrelle Revis Reach Deal To Be Announced Later This Week

Jets fans may have reason to breathe easier, as superstar cornerback Darrelle Revis' holdout may finally be coming to an end. Here's what ESPN personality and Dallas Morning News writer Tim Cowlishaw posted on Twitter recently:

Revis and Jets announce new deal, probably Wednesday. You heard it here first. "Inside information!"less than a minute ago via web

 

While the Jets' secondary has been better than average during the preseason--with Antonio Cromartie playing a big role as the new number one corner--it's clear that they're not as good as they could be, especially compared to a secondary with Revis on the field.

Gang Green Nation correctly expresses some confusion as to how Tim Cowlishaw, of all people, would come up with this information, but if it's true, there's nothing stopping the Jets from having the best defense in the NFL this season.
