Jets counter Darrelle Revis news by signing Breno Giacomini
The New York Jets weren’t about to sit back and let the New England Patriots steal all the AFC East headlines by agreeing to a contract with Darrelle Revis. Oh no. The Jets decided to swing the news back in their favor by announcing a move of their own.
At 8:23 pm ET, Adam Schefter tweeted news about Revis and the Patriots:
CB Darrelle Revis and the New England Patriots have reached agreement on a one-year, $12 million deal, league sources told ESPN.
