John Idzik draft pick has 2nd chance to stick with Jets

To most Jets players, Wednesday was just another training camp practice under the humid sun, another day to get closer to the season.

But to Shaq Evans, it was a milestone.

It was the team’s sixth practice of camp — one more than he was able to participate in a year ago when he suffered a season-ending shoulder injury that required surgery.

“This is my career high,” the 6-foot-1 receiver said jokingly.

Evans was unsure if he would even have a spot with the Jets amid the organizational turnover when coach Rex Ryan and general manager John Idzik were fired.
