Jets Linebacker Reilly Ready to Push for More Playing Time?

Hard to believe as it may be, but a look up and down the New York Jets depth chart at the outside linebacker position reveals third-year pro Trevor Reilly as being the elder statesman in the group, given the departure of long-time outside ‘backer Calvin Pace and the in-season dumping of Quinton Coples who started opposite Pace for each of the past few seasons.

By saying goodbye to Pace and Coples while choosing Jordan Jenkins in this year’s NFL draft and Lornezo Mauldin last year, this may be Reilly’s best chance to get on the field for Gang Green in an expanded role.
