After taking some time deciding on which team to sign with, the Vikings or Jets, RB LaDainian Tomlinson has made up his mind. He will be wearing green next season.
LT and the Jets have agreed to a two-year contract, though the terms of the deal haven’t been announced as of yet worth $5.1 million with another $500k available in incentives.
Tomlinson, who won’t be relied upon to take the brunt of the carries at age 31, should fit in well with the Jets. A run first team, NY has two other good backs (starter Shonn Greene, scat back Leon Washington), a rock solid offensive line, and receiving weapons (Braylon Edwards, Jerricho Cotchery, Dustin Keller). With those in place, LdT was just the icing on top to an offense that should approve upon its dismal offensive rating from last season.
I wonder how Thomas Jones is feeling right about now?

I don’t know how Jones is feeling about the LdT signing, but it was pretty cool of the Jets to place a full page ad in the Kansas City Star, wishing him luck. You just don’t see that happen very often. http://newspaperads.kansascity.com/ROP/ads.aspx?advid=1249766&adid=9046801&cat=3347
