The Facts:
With a contract for receiver Santonio Holmes done, the Jets are now looking at signing another wide receiver: Moss. Jason La Canfora of NFL Network reports that the Jets may not be able to afford Braylon Edwards after signing Holmes, and now Moss is one of the other options the Jets are considering.

As PFT's Michael David Smith points out, Moss would certainly fit with the philosophy of Rex Ryan, who seems just as happy assembling a roster of guys who are characters as guys who have character. The biggest question about Moss is whether he still has the blazing speed that made him such a great threat for much of his career. The 34-year-old Moss didn’t do much while playing for three teams last season. Worth noting: The Jets' interest in Moss dates back to earlier this year. In May Jets owner Woody Johnson said, “There’s no question that Randy Moss has the capability, has the God-given talent to be a superstar. ...” We'd change that to read there's no question Moss "had" those things. It's not clear he still does.
