FLORHAM PARK, N.J. - No-showing was never an option for Muhammad Wilkerson.
As annoyed as he's been about the stalled contract talks between his agent and the Jets, Wilkerson said he had every intention of reporting to training camp.
"Well, I'm one of the leaders on this team and it's the start of training camp,'' the defensive lineman said Thursday after the first practice of the summer. "My job is to get out here with my teammates and get ready for the season."
Wilkerson has been seeking a long-term deal since last season, back when John Idzik was the general manager.
