FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (CBSNewYork/AP) — Matt Forte is eager to be a bigger part of the New York Jets’ offense.

“A guy who catches the ball should be involved in the offense on the receiving side of it,” Forte said Tuesday after practice.
There were times last season when Forte wondered what his role was under former coordinator Chan Gailey.
