FLORHAM PARK, N.J. — Ryan Clady knew he was nowhere close to being done with football.
Not when he tore the ligament in his left knee for his second major injury in three seasons. Not when he spent the Super Bowl as a spectator, rooting on his Broncos teammates.
And, not when Denver brought in a player to replace him, effectively ending his tenure with the team and casting his future in doubt.
“It was a little bit stressful,” Clady acknowledged. “I can’t deny that.”
The veteran left tackle, acquired by the New York Jets in a trade from Denver in April, is healthy again.
