Jace Amaro hopes to revitalize tight-end position in Jets' offense

As he prepares for his third NFL season, Jace Amaro's claim to fame is that he triggered a war of words with Rex Ryan. Surely, you remember that unfortunate chapter in coach-player relations.

In a radio interview after Ryan was fired by the New York Jets, Amaro said the team lacked accountability in 2014. The tight end must have pushed a button because Ryan fired back, and he kept firing in subsequent interviews.

Amaro doesn't want to be remembered that way. He wants to be known for catching passes, not flak from his old coach.
